This is Part 1 of a two-part series. This course will focus on the purpose and process of using Montessori-based interventions in elder and dementia care. Specific examples, goals and implementation steps will be discussed for easy integration into clinical work.

This course will cover foundational skills for therapists new to teletherapy, including setting realistic expectations, effective organization and scheduling strategies, privacy concerns, and insights into tracking and documentation.

This is Part 2 of a two-part series. This course will focus on purposes for and ways to use Montessori-based interventions in elder and dementia care. Specific examples, goals, and case studies will be discussed for easy integration into clinical work.

This is Part 1 of a two-part series. This course will provide an overview of respiration and why respiratory muscle strength training is important. Appropriate diagnoses for patient referral, including COVID-19, will be examined, as well as evidence for use of respiratory muscle strength training.

While embedded intervention is logically appealing and commonly accepted as a recommended practice, implementation often lacks the intentionality and sufficiency necessary to facilitate child progress and caregiver confidence. This course will highlight both intervention and implementation strategies to increase dosage and generalization of learning for young children. This course is presented in partnership with the American Board of Child Language and Language Disorders (ABCLLD).

This is Part 2 of a two-part series. This course will discuss available tools to use for respiratory muscle strength training (RMST). Protocols for inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength training will be reviewed as well as contraindications for use.

This course will provide an overview of assessment and management of auditory processing disorders (APD) in children. Interdisciplinary aspects of working with school-age children will be highlighted.

This course will describe providing evidence-based language therapy services to children from birth through high school via telepractice. A brief overview of current evidence will be discussed along with a more in-depth look at using evidence-based practice in a telepractice setting.
