DESCRIPTION

Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability in the United States. Given stroke can affect all aspects of bodily function and abilities, multiple measurements and assessments are administered across disciplines. These measurements are critical in evaluating function and providing effective care for the stroke survivor. Clinical knowledge of various standardized assessments is required of all medical professionals to create effective goals for stroke patients to achieve functional outcomes.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, participants should be able to:

  1. Describe rationale for and importance of accurate measurements and assessments of the stroke patient using standardized tools
  2. Describe at least one measurement/assessment utilized in stroke recovery for the areas of cognition, speech/language, motor for
    the upper extremities, and motor for the lower extremities
  3. Provide two examples of outcome measurements related to community
