Course overview

Recovery from a brain injury requires clinical skills and expertise of an interdisciplinary team (IDT). While you must know your specific role in managing patients after brain injury, you must also understand treatment strategies common to all team members, regardless of discipline, to maximize each individuals outcomes and function. In this course, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology professionals will learn medical and therapeutic interventions to address common impairments after brain injury. Key areas include addressing stimulation needs based on Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) level, assessing and managing agitation and aggression, and preventing and managing seizures. Tips for effective patient communication based on Rancho Los Amigos level and IDT collaboration are presented. The goal of this course is to teach PT, OT, and SLP professionals how to collaborate with the IDT to support patients following brain injury.
