Having difficulty knowing which interventions might be effective with your patients? This is the course for you! The pediatric population can be a challenge for therapists. Attend this seminar and get the latest in strategies and guidelines for your pediatric therapy patients.
You will get a chance to practice in groups using patient cases to translate appropriate findings from those resources into interventions for your patients. Real life experiences from the speaker and other attendees will allow for discussion and suggestions for best practice related to typical diagnoses. You will have the opportunity to seek input on interventions for unique patients through the group discussion/consensus process. Participants will be assisted in developing a practical plan to sustain skills.
Bring a baby doll for demonstration and practice and maybe just to hug throughout the day.
