Best Practice in Dual-Tasking: Examination Through Intervention

Course overview

Until now, dual-tasking has felt unwieldy and difficult to translate. Dual-tasking (DT) has the ability to transform many of your patients' lives from being clinically capable to becoming real-world actualized. This first course of a two-part series will guide attendees through the science and application of dual-tasking. Drs. Rob Winningham and Mike Studer will present the evidence for examining your patient's dual-task tolerance and capturing their improvement over time. In addition, the instructors will translate the science of dual-tasking into numerous practical interventions. Attendees will be exposed to each of the four modes of DT interference (cognitive, manual, visual, and auditory). Be prepared to absorb specific practical tips in testing, educating, and distracting your patients right away!
