The Salzman Matrix: Combining Cognitive & Motor Tasks with Purpose
Presented by Andrea Salzman, MS, PT
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5381Level: Introductory2 Hours
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.

The Role of PT in Treating the Cardiac Patient in the Home
Presented by Kala Markel, PT, DPT
Live WebinarWed, Jun 10, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
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.

Obesity-Related Mobility Limitations: Tips and Tricks for the PT/OT Provider
Presented by Andrea Salzman, MS, PT
Live WebinarThu, Jun 25, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #5443Level: Introductory2 Hours
This 2-hour introductory webinar equips physical and occupational therapy providers with evidence-based strategies to effectively address mobility limitations in patients with obesity. Participants will learn practical, immediately applicable techniques for exercise prescription, environmental modifications, and patient-centered care approaches. The course covers the biomechanical and physiological factors affecting mobility in this population, evidence-based rehabilitation interventions, and clinical tips for creating safe, supportive treatment environments. Ideal for clinicians seeking to enhance their confidence and competence in treating patients with obesity-related functional limitations.

The Importance of Preventing a Fall in the Home Care Setting
Presented by Christopher Voltmer, PT, DPT, PhD, NCS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5335Level: Introductory2 Hours
Preventing falls in the home care setting is extremely important because falls can lead to serious health consequences, reduced independence, and significant emotional and financial burdens for individuals and caregivers. This course will review and breakdown of why fall prevention is critical to the home care physical therapist.

COPD - Evidence-Based Tips and Tricks for the PT and OT Provider
Presented by Andrea Salzman, MS, PT
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5229Level: Introductory2 Hours
This practical webinar equips PTs and OTs with the skills to deliver effective, evidence-based rehabilitation for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Attendees will learn how to individualize exercise programs, apply breathing techniques, and support functional independence through targeted interventions. With a strong focus on real-world application, this session emphasizes the unique and essential roles rehab professionals play in improving outcomes across the continuum of care.

Satisfaction in Home Health Care
Presented by Chris Chimenti, MSPT
Recorded WebinarAudio
Course: #5247Level: Intermediate2 Hours

Get a Grip: Grip Strength Testing as a PT Vital Sign
Presented by Dennis O'Connell, PT, PhD, DPT, FACSM, Wendy Anemaet, PT, DPT, MSPT, PhD, Marsha Rutland, PT, BSPT, MEd, ScD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5296Level: Intermediate2 Hours
Grip strength is a clinically significant indicator of overall health, linked to strength, function, sarcopenia, frailty, morbidity, and mortality. This course reviews anatomy, testing standards, and evidence-based training protocols, equipping participants to integrate grip strength assessment as a vital sign in physical therapy practice.

Dementia in Older Adults: Enhancing Clinical Practice Through an Evidence-Based Approach
Presented by Dennis Klima, PT, MS, PhD, DPT, GCS, NCS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5277Level: Intermediate2 Hours
The course will provide a comprehensive update on best practice evidence for managing patients with dementia and other select neuropsychiatric conditions.

Turning the Tide on Falls – How Arms Are Changing the Game
Presented by Jonathan Lee-Confer, PhD, Christine Childers, PT, PhD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5259Level: Intermediate2 Hours
This course looks at the biomechanics of the arms and legs during a slip incidence and explores the possibility that strengthening the upper extremity could be equally as important as the lower extremity for fall prevention.
