Course Description & Learning Objectives November 30, 2023Course Description: Stroke is a leading cause of serious long-term disability and reduces mobility in more than half of stroke survivors age 65 and over (CDC, 2021). Short-term and long term-effects of difficulties in mobility, speech, and every day activities of daily living, as well as impacting how survivors think and feel (WSO, 2022). This conference will focus on rehabilitation and recovery paradigms for those with long-lasting effects of stroke. Internationally renowned scientists and clinicians are invited to speak on the following topics, including prediction and prognostication of stroke recovery, neuroplasticity and neuromodulation, innovation in stroke care and recovery, stem cells, rehabilitation technology, spasticity, ethics, diversity and advocacy. Speakers will provide the most recent developments in the field and discuss the incorporation and implementation of these advances into practice. Learning Outcomes: Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: 1. Investigate current research and literature related to stroke recovery and rehabilitation. 2. Inspect multi-disciplinary approaches to the care of stroke survivors. 3. Experiment with rehabilitation concepts and interventions in rehabilitation programs for stroke survivors. Learning Outcomes for Occupational Therapy: Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: 1. Appraise current research and literature related to stroke recovery and rehabilitation. 2. Identify multi-disciplinary approaches for the care of stroke survivors. 3. Summarize rehabilitation concepts and interventions in rehabilitation programs for stroke survivors. Course Completion Requirements: Full attendance to content, participation and discussions and activities, and completion of the course feedback form.
