Visual Rehab after a Neurological Event: What Every Therapist Needs to Know
When working with clients after a neurologic event, therapists immediately recognize physical deficits and began to create a list of functional impairments. How often does this include an assessment of vision or consideration of the contributions of visual impairment to functional limitations? You will get a clear foundation for how to assess vision and recognize visual field loss vs visual inattention and how this impacts movement, balance and ADLs. You will learn effective techniques to conduct a vision screening after a stroke or brain injury and how to implement treatment strategies into your plan of care for improved outcomes.
