Presented by Andrea Attorri, PT, DPT, GCS, CCS
Live WebinarWed, Oct 14, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #5502Level: Introductory2 Hours
This course provides rehabilitation clinicians with a foundational understanding of mechanical ventilation to optimize clinical decision-making and patient mobility. Participants will explore the principles of oxygenation versus ventilation, types of respiratory failure, indications for mechanical ventilation, and common artificial airways. It covers core ventilator settings, primary modes of ventilation, ventilator-induced lung injuries, and key safety considerations for mobilizing ventilated patients. Emphasis is placed on interprofessional decision-making, clinical reasoning, and collaborative care coordination during interdisciplinary rounds. This course was designed for an interprofessional rehabilitation clinician audience.

Science of Nutrition in Sports and Exercise
Presented by Colleen Gulick, Ph.D., MS, BS, EIT, CSCS, Dawn T. Gulick, PT, PhD, ATC, CSCS
Live WebinarThu, Oct 15, 2026 at 6:00 pm EDT
Course: #5500Level: Intermediate2 Hours
The presenters of "The Science of Nutrition in Sports & Exercise" have approached this webinar from two different perspectives. Dr. Colleen Gulick, a professional athlete with a PhD in exercise physiology, nutrition, and endocrinology, has firsthand experience and an academic background that positions her uniquely within the genre. Dr. Dawn Gulick, a physical therapist, athletic trainer, exercise physiologist, and academic, has guided decades of elite athletes through optimizing their rehabilitation and high-performance careers. Her diverse credentials allow her to speak to both the nutritional and rehab process. Together, they provide an evidence-based, user-friendly resource for the classroom and the field.

Working With ASL Interpreters, in Partnership With RIT/National Technical Institute for the Deaf
Presented by Vanessa Murphy, Au.D., CCC-A
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5517Level: Introductory1 Hour
This course focuses on a culturally sensitive approach to working with ASL interpreters and deaf and hard-of-hearing patients as a healthcare provider.

The Therapy Role In Trauma-Responsive Pediatric Practice
Presented by Audrie Vantangoli, MOT, OTD, OTR/L
Recorded WebinarText/Transcript
Course: #5498Level: Introductory1 Hour
Therapists are at the forefront of trauma and self-regulation; however, therapists are not always the first line of defense when developing plans related to behavioral interventions within the pediatric setting. Trauma can significantly affect a child's development and skill mastery. In order to promote participation in meaningful activities, therapists must focus on building consistent trauma-informed practices to rebuild a sense of perceived safety. This course discusses the essential needs for incorporating trauma-informed care when working with the pediatric population.

The Role of PT in Treating the Cardiac Patient in the Home
Presented by Kala Markel, PT, DPT
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5454Level: Intermediate2 Hours
This 2‑hour webinar is designed to equip home health PTs and PTAs with practical skills to manage adults recovering from CABG, valve surgery, MI/stent, and heart failure in the home setting. Participants will review typical post‑hospital recovery trajectories, learn to perform focused cardiac assessments (including vitals, orthostatics, and symptom monitoring), and apply clear red‑flag criteria to guide safe “go/no‑go” decisions in non‑monitored environments. The course emphasizes designing and progressing symptom‑limited exercise and functional mobility programs using tools such as RPE, talk test, and functional outcome measures, while integrating patient and caregiver education on daily self‑monitoring, pacing, and lifestyle strategies to support cardiac stability and reduce readmissions.

Advanced Concepts in Sports Performance Training
Presented by Scott Cheatham, PhD, DPT, OCS, ATC, CSCS
Live WebinarThu, Oct 22, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #5471Level: Advanced2 Hours
This presentation discusses current concepts in sports performance training as it applies to rehabilitation and strength and conditioning professionals. Presentation topics include advanced resistance training, plyometrics, speed-agility-quickness, balance training, and integrated programming strategies for athletes of all ages. This presentation is for the provider seeking an evidence-based update on advanced sports performance training concepts. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

Clinical Applications of Durable Medical Equipment for Activities of Daily Living
Presented by Michelle Lange, OTR/L, ATP/SMS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5460Level: Introductory1 Hour
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.

Chronic Pain Management Through Aquatic Therapy
Presented by Andrea Salzman, PT, MS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5438Level: Introductory2 Hours
Discover evidence-based strategies for integrating aquatic therapy into chronic pain management. This introductory 2-hour webinar explores how water's unique physical properties—buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and thermal effects—create an optimal environment for therapeutic exercise in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Participants will learn the physiological mechanisms underlying aquatic therapy's effectiveness, practical protocols for common chronic pain conditions including low back pain, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia, and essential safety considerations. Through examination of recent clinical trials and systematic reviews, attendees will gain immediately applicable knowledge to implement aquatic therapy programs that reduce pain, improve function, and enhance quality of life for their patients.

Managing Spasticity and Tone in SCI Rehabilitation
Presented by Lauren Young, PT, DPT, NCS, CSRS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5396Level: Advanced2 Hours
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.

Advanced Clinical Reasoning in Wound Management: Optimizing Dressing Selection
Presented by Jennifer Gardner-Harbison, PT, DPT, MHA, CWS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5439Level: Advanced2 Hours
This advanced webinar enhances clinical reasoning skills for evidence-based wound dressing selection. Participants will analyze wound characteristics, healing progression, and patient-specific factors to determine appropriate escalation, transition, or de-escalation of dressings using current peer-reviewed evidence and clinical guidelines. Emphasis is placed on mechanism-driven decision making, skilled documentation, and interdisciplinary communication to optimize patient outcomes.
