Patients with stroke, SCI, TBI, brain tumors, and functional and degenerative neurological diseases face significant disruption to so many facets of their lives, and clinicians are left with so many treatment dimensions to consider, that rehabilitation is never simple. These challenges are compounded by the fact that rehabilitation approaches are now in a period of rapid expansion. It’s difficult to stay current with, choose, and use the best options for neurorehabilitation—yet this is key to optimizing patient outcomes.

It’s with these challenges in mind that we present NeuroRehabilitation 2023. Many of the country’s most experienced and committed neurorehabilitation experts provide updates and strategies for state-of-the-art clinical interventions. Education is comprehensive and practical. As a participant in the distance learning program, you can rely on this course for:

Comprehensive updates
Education to further your expertise in guiding patients to their maximum level of function
Evidence-based approaches to challenging and complex cases
Take-home tools
A learning experience to heighten your success in effectively and efficiently helping your patients gain the skills that will improve their health, function, and quality of life
