Are you an OT or an SLP currently practicing in cognitive rehabilitation and interested in learning new assessment and treatment techniques?  Are you a psychologist or mental health provider who would like to understand more about how your clients learn and remember so they can be more successful with the tools you provide them?  Are you a PT or a chiropractor who would like to become more familiar with cognition and cognitive rehabilitation to increase your client’s adherence to therapy protocols?

The Cognitive Rehabilitation for Practicing Clinicians course is designed by practicing clinicians for practicing clinicians.  This interactive course combines didactics, real-world tools and techniques, evidence reviews, and interactive learning experiences to expand your knowledge base and comfort level in working with both traditional and complex (dual diagnosis) cognitive rehabilitation clients.

Participants will review models of attention, memory, and executive function through both theoretical and practical lenses, identifying how the models can conceptually guide daily practice.  Evidence-based assessment and treatment approaches will be presented, along with an exploration of how to address the real-world challenges clinicians sometimes face in implementing literature recommendations (efficacy versus effectiveness).  Discussions about how to encourage full participation and optimal recovery outcomes for traditional neurologic populations such as TBI, stroke, and age-related cognitive decline, as well as a variety of behavioral health populations, are facilitated.

Whether your clinical setting focuses on traditional inpatient and outpatient programming, cognitive Functional Capacity Evaluations, or other unique areas, this course will help turn assessment results into actionable treatment goals and activities.  With up to date evidence and references, this is a learning opportunity with “next day clinical application” that is relevant for both seasoned clinicians and those new to cognitive rehab.

Build and solidify your role as a cognitive expert on your team through the tools, techniques, and knowledge you will gain in this interactive workshop!

“This Ergonomics Evaluation Certification Program is extremely valuable. Dr. LaCourse is an excellent instructor with years of hands-on experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in reducing cumulative trauma disorders.”

“Also, I just completed my very first FCE today……. And it was AWESOME!!! I could hear you talking in the back of my head the whole time! Very exciting!! Thanks for such a great learning experience!”

“I was so impressed with my entire Matheson experience.”

“As a provider of FCEs for 12-plus years, I have been through several training programs. I would recommend Matheson without reservation. Thanks to your training, my staff is the best prepared in my area. It has made a difference for my business and has set us ahead of our competition.”

“Far and away the best certification course I have attended in my seven-year professional career. The instructors are knowledgeable and apply all of the information to real-world scenarios. Thank you!”

“Of all the FCE training I have received, Matheson is the most evidence-based. I like that it is a battery of standardized tests, and not a standard battery of tests. It also requires thinking as an evaluator, unlike other programs that don’t allow you to consider any non-quantitative factors, which results in an opinion of functional capacity lacking in external validity. The Matheson FCE makes the most of what is available right now.”

“The Amended ADA Webinar was outstanding and I really appreciate your willingness to do them.  You have gotten to the heart of the matter in the “gray areas” that people have familiarity with, but are not comfortable discussing.  I treasure every one of these webinars.  They have helped me be a better evaluator and allowed me to speak intelligently to our employers and other referral sources.”

“I just wanted to e-mail you and let you know that I found this webinar to be extremely helpful to me in my position as an the on site PT manager. In my opinion your webinar provided excellent information about the ADA issues we may face and invaluable advice to avoid legal pitfalls related to our work site analysis and testing procedures.”

“We are utilizing the Matheson philosophy not only for Functional Capacity Evaluation, but also for the foundation of interdisciplinary treatment of chronic pain patients at our clinic in Waltham MA, Boston PainCare. The culture of function is throughout all of our departments, interventional, functional rehabilitation, medication management, sleep, and behavioral.
Spending the week training for FCEs in Keene, NH was very exciting as it allowed me to know that we are not only on the…”

The instructors did an excellent job of breaking down the complex concepts into the most simple and understandable pieces of information. My folders of countless papers from various sources, both online and off, have been consolidated into one well-laid out reference book!

Thank you for having the Essential Function Job Analysis course available. I have been doing job analyses and post offer test formulation at my company for 8 years now and this course taught me that we need to (and will) make some adjustments to our procedures to better defend any possible legal challenges. That means a great deal to me as a business owner.

“Your webinars have made me a better evaluator and allowed me to speak intelligently to our employers and other referral sources.”
