The Discharge Function Score Measure: the Who, What, Where, How for PTs and OTs, and Why You Should Care
In both skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) and home health (HH), older adults rely on physical and occupational therapy to regain function. In 2024, CMS elevated the importance of functional outcomes by adopting the Discharge Function Score across the HH Expanded VBP Model, SNF QRP, and SNF VBP, directly tying payment to patient progress. This session gives PTs and OTs a clear, practical overview of the measure, how it is calculated, and why it matters. Attendees will learn actionable strategies for integrating the score into daily practice, strengthening documentation, and ensuring that each patient's functional gains are accurately captured. Participants will leave prepared to collaborate with their agencies and facilities to improve quality and performance, and to highlight the essential value of rehabilitation in post-acute care. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

https://www.physicaltherapy.com/pt-ceus/course/navigating-polypharmacy-and-multi-morbidity-5537
Navigating Polypharmacy and Multi-Morbidity: A PT's Guide to Exercise Optimization and Patient Management
Seventy-three percent of older adults have two chronic conditions, and 36% have four or more, leading to management with polypharmacy. One in 5 older adults uses 5 or more prescription medications and is taking a medication that adversely affects a co-existing condition. Polypharmacy bidirectionally impacts physical function and, therefore, physical activity. Adults who participate in aerobic and strengthening activity recommendations have a greatly reduced risk for all-cause mortality. Physical therapists who understand how the movement system interacts with multimorbidity and polypharmacy are uniquely qualified to guide complex patients through safe and effective exercise programs to improve physical function and reduce mortality. This session will use the ACSM exercise recommendation guidelines to consider each multimorbidity’s effect on the exercise prescription, balance polypharmacy considerations, and maximize patient safety and exercise dosing for meaningful results. Using exemplar cases, the learner will be challenged to recognize patterns of multimorbidity and pharmacotherapy, discuss the role of the physical therapist within the multidisciplinary team and in patient communication, and optimize patient outcomes. The Beers List of potentially inappropriate medications to be avoided in older adults will be incorporated, and a schema will be provided to integrate advanced clinical reasoning into the care of complex patients.

Moving Forward with Peripheral Arterial Disease: Differential Diagnosis and Evidence-Based Exercise Prescription
While not always the primary diagnosis, peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a comorbidity that can limit a patient's ability to maximize independence. It is crucial for therapists across the healthcare continuum to understand the nuances of this condition, given that a cornerstone of its treatment is a structured walking program. This course provides essential insights into the differential diagnosis and evidence-based management of PAD. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

https://www.physicaltherapy.com/pt-ceus/course/deconditioning-after-hospitalization-or-illness-5466
Deconditioning After Hospitalization or Illness: Tips and Tricks for the PT and OT Provider
A patient may survive an illness or hospitalization and still come home unable to do the ordinary things that made up daily life before admission. Walking to the bathroom, getting off the toilet, showering, dressing, preparing a meal, climbing steps, carrying objects, and tolerating a normal morning routine may suddenly require substantial effort or assistance.This course gives PT and OT practitioners a highly functional approach to hospital- and illness-associated deconditioning. Rather than treating weakness and endurance as isolated impairments, participants will learn to connect strength, power, balance, mobility, cognition, fatigue, and cardiopulmonary tolerance directly to meaningful daily tasks. Practical cases will demonstrate how to identify the functional bottleneck, choose the right starting dose, build activity into real-life tasks, progress without overwhelming the patient, and translate clinic gains into independence at home. Emphasis is placed on immediately usable strategies for transfers, ADLs, household mobility, stairs, pacing, task modification, home programs, and return to everyday routines. This course is designed for an interprofessional audience.

Evaluation and Management of Shoulder Pain in Spinal Cord Injury
Shoulder pain in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) is a pervasive condition with wide reaching implications. Because the upper extremities must take on the intensive role of weight-bearing for daily activities, rehabilitation professionals must utilize specialized strategies that go beyond generalized shoulder care. This 2-hour interprofessional course equips rehabilitation professionals with evidence-based tools to evaluate, prevent, and manage dysfunction in the "weight-bearing shoulder." Participants will learn to apply the Wheelchair User's Shoulder Pain Index (WUSPI), optimize manual wheelchair ergonomics using power-assist technologies, and implement targeted, high-dose intervention protocols. By analyzing recent clinical evidence, the interprofessional rehabilitation team will learn how to collaboratively apply these protocols and coordinate appropriate medical escalation to preserve their patients' long-term upper limb function. This course is designed for an interprofessional audience.

The Role of PT in Treating the Cardiac Patient in the Home
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.

The Salzman Matrix: Combining Cognitive & Motor Tasks with Purpose
Cognition and movement are tightly linked in functional activity, yet integrating them in rehabilitation can be challenging. While dual-task training is commonly used, poorly matched cognitive demands can interfere with motor performance and learning. This introductory course introduces the Salzman Matrix, an evidence-aligned clinical reasoning framework designed to guide purposeful cognitive–motor integration while minimizing interference. Participants will learn how to distinguish cognitive processes that support movement from cognitive demands that commonly compete with motor goals, and how to apply this framework to functional treatment planning and documentation across rehabilitation settings.

Cognition and movement are tightly linked in functional activity, yet integrating them in rehabilitation can be challenging. While dual-task training is commonly used, poorly matched cognitive demands can interfere with motor performance and learning. This introductory course introduces the Salzman Matrix, an evidence-aligned clinical reasoning framework designed to guide purposeful cognitive–motor integration while minimizing interference. Participants will learn how to distinguish cognitive processes that support movement from cognitive demands that commonly compete with motor goals, and how to apply this framework to functional treatment planning and documentation across rehabilitation settings.
