The Sky’s the Limit: Revolutionizing Geriatric Rehabilitation Practice and Outcomes Recording Available

Watch 'The Sky’s the Limit: Revolutionizing Geriatric Rehabilitation Practice and Outcomes' webinar recording with speaker Jennifer Stevens-Lapsley, MPT, PhD. The webinar discusses the onset of post-acute care reform has created an environment for physical therapists to transform clinical practices and be more effective at improving function in medically deconditioned patient populations in shorter episodes of care. Evidence suggests implementing programs focused on mobility throughout the day combined with high-intensity rehabilitation interventions (low repetitions, high weight) produces greater functional gains and can be accomplished in less time than lower-intensity interventions (high repetitions, low weight). This presentation will describe some of the barriers to implementation along with practical strategies to implement higher intensity interventions. The content is relevant to clinicians treating medically complex patients in a variety of settings (e.g acute, skilled nursing, home health, and outpatient). Sign up to receive the recording.
