A one-day workshop for physiotherapists
- Develop an understanding of common cognitive and perceptual issues that you see in your patients
- Attention
- Memory
- Executive functions, including awareness
- Purposeful movement and Apraxia
- Visual processing and perceptual disorders
- Explore how these issues affect your practice – why patients might/might not engage, why some patients do/don’t translate what is done in the gym to the ward/home, inconsistent patterns of performance
- Provide strategies on how to deal with these cognitive and perceptual issues, during your physiotherapy assessment and treatment
- Provide practical ideas to improve your therapy outcomes and improve the effectiveness of your treatment.
- Techniques to maximise the functional outcome for these patients during and after your intervention
