Course Title: Let's Talk Vestibular Informed OT Care

Course Speaker & Credentials: Sheetal Shenoy, OTD, MPA, OTR/L

Course abstract: Common vestibular symptoms often go unrecognized during evaluation and treatment of adult patients with a non-vestibular diagnosis. The underlying symptoms have profound consequences in the recovery process interfering with safe return to activities of daily living that impacts the quality of life. Occupational therapy practitioners within various adult settings play an integral role in the early identification of vestibular deficits as well as providing vestibular informed care during routine therapy sessions.

Course Objectives: Participants will understand the basics of the vestibular system and how vestibular impairments affect activities of daily living. They will learn to identify common vestibular related symptoms in any adult patient population they evaluate and treat. The merits of early identification of common vestibular deficits and the role of OT will be discussed.
