Course overview
Dizziness and vertigo are common among the elderly population and account for an increase in falls in this population. There are several types of dizziness which include disorders of the vestibular system, central nervous system, cervical spine, and others. Dizziness can lead to a functional decline in this population and physical and occupational therapists need to be able to recognize signs and symptoms of dizziness in patients they are treating for other conditions, be able to treat the cause of the dizziness itself, and implement treatment plans to decrease dizziness and restore function in the elderly population. This course will enable the learner to be able to differentiate between types of dizziness and understand how to implement treatment plans to treat this condition. Patients with dizziness often present to primary care settings but dizziness may be found when a patient is already in the care of a physical or occupational therapist and rehabilitation professionals must understand this condition.
