Developing Exercise Programs for Complex Patients (Recorded Webinar)

Course overview

This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from standard MedBridge courses. Clinicians are currently dealing with a wide variety of complex patients and are concerned about how much to push them to do activities due to safety, yet clinicians know they should not be too conservative. This webinar will provide physical and occupational therapists with tools and strategies to help problem-solve regarding the level of complexity of the patient as well as the patient's tolerance to exercise and activities of daily living as demonstrated on an exercise assessment, and determine if the responses to activity are normal or abnormal. From this information, the learner will be able to make appropriate clinical decisions for an initial exercise prescription, including tolerance to activities of daily living, for these complex patients.
