Workshop Description:
This one-day in-person workshop will provide clinicians working in stroke care with practical, evidence-based skills to assess and treat poststroke dizziness and implement vestibular rehabilitation strategies.
Dizziness, vertigo and imbalance are common symptoms and vestibular rehabilitation provides effective evaluation and treatment. Symptoms of dizziness or vertigo can affect participation in rehabilitation, and vestibular dysfunction is often an under-recognized contributor to imbalance and falls. Physiotherapists and occupational therapists have a key role in evidence-based care for individuals with vestibular dysfunction. This session will focus on assessment and rehabilitation management of dizziness, vertigo, imbalance and gaze instability in patients post-stroke. This session will also include an overview of common co-morbid peripheral vestibular disorders, including Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV).
