NeuroPro Skills™ for
Nurses
Quality Continuing Education for Neurorehabilitation Professionals
Course Description
Can "therapy" only happen with "therapists"? Our brains change with experience and repetition so each transfer, stand, walk, reach, or bed reposition can advance recovery or can reinforce bad habits and compensations. There is an opportunity, therefore, with each nursing contact to reinforce the lessons from therapy and dramatically improve patient outcomes. In this course, a bridge will be established between therapy and nursing so that nurses can further enhance their role on the rehabilitation team in promoting patient recovery.
Ideal for:
- Registered Nurses
- Licensed Practical Nurses
- Nursing Assistants
- Health Care Aides
- Other Nursing Staff
