Clinical Applications of Durable Medical Equipment for Activities of Daily Living
Clients who use wheelchair seating and mobility equipment often have other durable medical equipment (DME) needs, as well. Durable medical equipment is typically used to assist activities of daily living and so clinicians are an active participant in selecting the appropriate equipment for a client’s needs. This course will address bath/shower equipment, toileting equipment, patient lifts, and adaptive car seats.

Acute SCI Management: What to Do and Why It Matters
Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is clinically complex and often unpredictable, with patients presenting as medically fragile and at high risk for secondary complications. In this environment, physical therapists are required to make rapid, high-stakes decisions while balancing safety, recovery potential, and medical stability. This course introduces a practical clinical framework designed to guide prioritization of assessment and intervention in the acute phase of SCI. The focus is on helping clinicians identify what matters most, when it matters most, in order to support safe progression of mobility and recovery. Emphasis is placed on managing common acute challenges such as respiratory compromise, cardiovascular instability, autonomic dysfunction, and immobility-related complications. Participants will learn how to structure evaluation and treatment strategies that are both efficient and purposeful within medically complex presentations. Ultimately, this framework is designed to support clinicians in preparing patients for the next phase of rehabilitation by optimizing early decision-making, maximizing functional potential, and reducing preventable secondary complications.

Managing Spasticity and Tone in SCI Rehabilitation
This course breaks down the science behind why spasticity develops after spinal cord injury, how to measure it accurately, and what the evidence says about treating it. Along the way we will challenge common clinical assumptions and build a practical framework for deciding when to treat, when to hold back, and how to work effectively with the rest of the interdisciplinary team for better patient outcomes. Whether you are new to SCI rehabilitation or looking to sharpen your clinical reasoning, participants will leave with a practical outcome measure battery, an evidence-based intervention framework, and a working knowledge of pharmacological and interventional options directly relevant to their practice.

Reflecting on Dosage in Clinical Practice: Is It Them or Is It Me?
Physical therapists continually aim to deliver high-quality, evidence-based care to optimize patient outcomes. A key component of this process is determining and applying the appropriate therapeutic dose using the FITT principle— Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type. While many patients show functional improvement, some present challenges where progress is limited or clinically insignificant. This course provides practical strategies for identifying and integrating the best available evidence into clinical decision-making. Participants will learn how to critically evaluate the dosing parameters used in research studies and translate this knowledge into effective, individualized treatment plans that help the clinician reflect on their care delivery and ultimately maximize functional outcomes.
