Motivations, Inc.

Objectives

Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to: 1. The participant will identify sensory processing difficulties and their relationship to movement and behavior in children with a variety of disorders 2. The participant will analyze postural and movement patterns and their relationship to sensory processing. 3. Through case analysis the learner will be able to identify movement and sensory impairments in children with developmental disabilities and how they affect functional performance. 4. The learner will apply current concepts of NDT, SI, Motor Learning and other approaches to children with various developmental disabilities. 5. The learner will begin to analyze functional performance problems and use clinical decision making regarding when to combine and when not to combine approaches with clients. 6. The participant will understand the use of blending approaches in the context of the child's and family's occupation. 7. The learner will begin to use the evidence to support clinical practice

Description

This workshop will focus on clinical reasoning and problem solving to identify functional movement and sensory processing problems and associated impairments in children with developmental disabilities. Practical tools will be introduced to analyze functional performance problems and appropriate application of interventions. Considerations for blending or not blending approaches such as Sensory Integration, Neuro-Developmental Treatment, Motor Learning as well as other approaches will be discussed. Case studies will be utilized to facilitate clinical reasoning and application of blending interventions to meet the multi faceted needs of children with developmental disabilities.
