Brain Injury: Musculoskeletal Issues, Mobility & ADLs

Course overview

Outcomes for patients with brain injury vary widely, based on the severity of the insult. Many patients with brain injuries struggle with deficits in self-care and mobility, which can have a significant effect on their ability to be independent and potentially limit their quality of life. Nurses often partner with other disciplines within the interprofessional team to address these deficits and foster improved function. In this course, participants will learn how to use this knowledge to develop interventions that address these expected functional deficits in order to improve patient outcomes.
