Description
Reduce Falls And It Will Increase
- Participation and functional and occupational performance
- Visual processing and strategies during dynamic movements and ambulation
- Safety with gait and functional mobility, safety for transfers, and safety sitting-Stand
- Patients can feel confident with their mobility at home and in the community.
As a clinician who has worked in skilled nursing, home health, acute, and transitional care, I’ve seen and treated too many patients who experience falls. My past focus was on strengthening the low extremity and home modification. I saw very little improvement. Was there something I was missing? It had to Better ways to Treat this population. Finally, I discovered that By examining the myriad of causes to falls – psychological, physiological, visual, and neuromuscular – I could effectively treat my patients by improving functional and occupational performance and giving them confidence with mobility in their home and community.
This lab-Recording intensively, practice and learn the evidence-Tools I use that are based on the following: to help prevent falls. These proven strategies will help you feel confident and at ease. that Transfer immediately into your clinical setting
