Who was this course developed for?: This foundational/intermediate level course was created for health care practitioners who see patients experiencing dizziness and/or unsteadiness.
Really, this course was made for you if you:
See a need in this area and would like some direction to know where to start.
Have dabbled in this area and experienced a mix of success and failures.
Deal with athletes with concussion and want to know more than VOMS.
Want to know more than just how to treat BPPV.
Have taken vestibular courses in the past and would like a refresher or update.
Are looking to specialize in an unique “niche” area to set you apart from competitors.
Are considering ways to improve the quality of life for those in your community.
If any of these resonate with you, we cannot wait to work with you this fall in Regina!
Course objectives: By the end of this course you should be able to:
Explain in lay terms the anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system.
Perform a vestibular assessment, interpret the findings and identify those who will respond to vestibular therapy and those who need further investigation.
Develop and implement a treatment plan for those who will benefit from vestibular therapy.
Understand the expectations for treatment, outcome, and timeframes.
Bottom line: Our goal is that you experience a transition to feeling confident in your skillset and improved outcomes with this patient population.
We want you to look forward to seeing your next patient with dizziness the Monday after the course.
