Functional Assessment of the Older Adult, 2nd Edition｜ Other Products

Course Description:
This intermediate-level course reviews key age-related changes and common health issues that challenge functional performance and participation among older adults. Evidence-based guidelines and tools to assess the multidimensional health needs of older adults using the ICF model are presented, with special considerations for gerontologic and culturally sensitive practice.
This course will enable physical therapy practitioners to understand and assess functional performance in older adults using a multidimensional approach. Client factors (including physical, cognitive, and psychosocial factors) and their impact on performance skills will be reviewed. The ICF model will serve as the basis for assessment and determination of functional limitations and contextual factors. Various measurement tools are provided as possible resources for clinicians.
