Evidence-Based Dual Task Training to Target Cognitive and Motor Deficits - San Antonio

This course will beging promptly at 8:00am - You must attend the whole day for education Units. 

Course Description: Older people, as well as those with a brain le­sion from a Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA), traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), mild cognitive impairment, dementia or a degenerative movement disease, such as Par­kinson disease, are often noted to have impaired balance control and/or impaired cognition levels. They are required to control their balance simultaneously while performing other non-balance-related tasks, requiring them to pay continuous attention to both tasks. These dual tasks require a high degree of attention as well as other cognitive skills.
