Description:

Therapists and other healthcare practitioners have an increasingly complex role in discharge planning from acute care as hospital stays become shorter and 30 day readmission rates are more closely scrutinized. It is imperative that acute care therapists not only identify but also be able to quantify functional impairments and fall risk. Standardized testing in hospitals is complicated by the frailty of the patient population, management of multiple lines and medical issues, as well as time constraints.

This course is designed to help healthcare practitioners by familiarizing them with the variety of tests to choose from, and to assist them in making sense of test outcomes. You will learn and practice tests that can be used on patients with high levels of mobility, as well as those tests that are appropriate for the ICU. During this lab-intensive course, you will be introduced to an array of objective measures that can be used to enhance assessments and documentation, to guide treatment, and to aid in discharge planning.
