Course overview

Stroke rehabilitation is complex, time-sensitive, and constantly evolvingthis evidence-based update equips clinicians to deliver best-practice care from acute hospitalization through community reintegration. Using research syntheses and clinical practice guideline updates (20222025), the course differentiates acute, subacute, and chronic-phase protocols for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, including safe mobilization timing and therapy dosing. Learners will strengthen clinical decision-making for post-acute setting selection (IRF, SNF, home-based care, outpatient, and telerehab) and apply standardized outcome measures to guide transitions and document progress. The course also provides practical, evidence-driven exercise programming across task-specific training, aerobic conditioning (including HIIT considerations), resistance training (including blood flow restriction), balance training, and fall prevention. Emerging technologiesrobotics, virtual reality, TMS/tDCS, and vagus nerve stimulationare reviewed with clear guidance for patient selection and clinical integration. Cognitive impairment, depression/anxiety, and aphasia management are addressed as essential drivers of functional outcomes, and real-world case studies tie everything together with an emphasis on implementation barriers and health equity.
