NDT / Bobath Certificate Course in the Management of Adults with Stroke and Brain Injury (Feb 22 - May 06, 2018)

NDT / Bobath Certificate Course in the Management of Adults with Stroke and Brain Injury is organized by Neuro-Developmental Treatment Association (NDTA) and will be held during Feb 22 - May 06, 2018 at Doctor's Hospital at Renaissance, Edinburg, Texas, United States of America. The target audience for this medical event is Neurosurgeons, Neurologists. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 112.00 Continuing Education Hours.

Learning Objectives :

• Observe, analyze and synthesize effective and ineffective posture and movement and its impact on a client’s functional abilities/limitations.
• Demonstrate integration of course content information within practicum assignment:
? Postural control
? Typical/Atypical development/movement analysis in function
? Evaluation and treatment planning
? Treatment
? Analysis and facilitation of movement
? Parent/caregiver training/home management
? Team work
? PT, OT, ST content
? Neurophysiology
• Identify components of typical movement and how it relates to the development of: sensory processing, upper extremity, and visual motor function.
• Problem solve multi-system, and single system impairments as it relates to sensory – motor processing, upper extremity function and visual motor function and chose effective NDT strategies to address identified functional limitations.

Course Objectives :

Participants will have the opportunity to increase their ability to:
• Apply the principles of NDT to the management of the adult client.
• Better assess and analyze normal and abnormal movement.
• Identify impairments interfering with function.
• Integrate the approach to management with concepts of neuroplasticity, recovery of function, and motor learning theory.
• Develop handling skills useful in facilitating normal function
