NeuroRecovery Training Institute Announces Stroke Specialty Certification

Before your therapist goes to this, these questions should be asked of the instructors. 'What percentage of your patients get to 100% recovery?'  'What guarantees of recovery will be able to be provided to survivors from use of this course?'
This ought to be really interesting since the only evidence based therapy is CIMT. Hell, therapists don't even have a common protocol to get patients walking.

The NeuroRecovery Training Institute (NeuroRTI) is proud to announce they will be offering a Stroke Specialty Certification beginning March 2016.

This 11-15 month program of post-professional clinical and didactic education is designed to translate evidence into practice, providing both physical and occupational therapists with the tools to deliver best practice management to the post-stroke population. The evidence-based curriculum will guide participants through the full spectrum of stroke rehabilitation, from neuroanatomy and pathology to examination and treatment, with the ultimate goal of facilitating recovery of function and improved reported quality of life. This program will be led by Jill Seale, PT, PhD, NCS, and Rachelle Studer-Byrnes, PT, DPT, NCS.

“We are thrilled to be launching the Stroke Specialty Certification and are eager to introduce the course material to students come March,” said Seale.

“We look forward to empowering students who are passionate about working with stroke survivors and providing them with the tools to promote recovery post-stroke and improve their patients’ outcomes and quality of life,” added Studer-Byrnes.

Cohorts will launch in March, July, and September of 2016. For admission requirements, curricula details, and total hours and credits, please visit http://www.neurorti.com.
