SUMMARY:From Eyesight to Insight - Visual and Vestibular Assessment & Treatment
DESCRIPTION:The Vision Kit – a toolkit utilized by Dr. Hillier & Mary Kawar \nThe development of higher-level performance skills\, including reading\, writing\, and receptive and expressive language\, is dependent upon a strong sensorimotor foundation. For many children unidentified difficulties with both the visual and vestibular systems can impact optimal performance. Participants will learn directly from an occupational therapist and developmental optometrist how to capture the subtleties of visual-vestibular dysfunction\, thus enhancing participants’ ability to optimize treatment planning. \nLocation\nOnline \nSchedule\n\n        \n            Full Agenda\n        \n    \nDay 1: Friday\, November 18\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:45pm CST\nDay 2: Saturday\, November 19\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:45pm CST \nLevel\nIntroductory \nCourse Objectives\nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nAdminister a vision screening examination.\nRefer clients for optometric evaluation effectively using standardized criteria.\nDemonstrate powerful treatment strategies that utilize the vestibular-oculomotor-cervical triad.\nDescribe the paradigm shift that indicates that functional performance is driven by vision and movement.\n\n\nScroll to the bottom of the page to Register.\n\n		\n		Continuing Ed \n		\n \nVital Links is an AOTA approved provider of continuing education.

SUMMARY:From Eyesight to Insight: Visual & Vestibular Assessment & Treatment
DESCRIPTION:This 2-day webinar provides a practical opportunity for participants to interact with a sensory integrative occupational therapist and a developmental optometrist as they collaborate on the goal of facilitating optimum performance in children with movement and vision issues. Many children have unidentified visual and vestibular challenges which interfere with the development of physical\, emotional\, and cognitive skills including receptive and expressive language\, reading\, and writing. Speakers will reveal and clarify some of the mysteries of previously ambiguous performance issues in childhood. Participants will develop a broader net for capturing the subtleties of visual-vestibular behavior by gaining insight into underlying causes. \nLecture information and video demonstrations will provide ample opportunity for participants to learn how to administer a vision screening examination. Comprehensive treatment protocols\, including the Astronaut Vestibular-Visual-Auditory Protocol\, will be shared so that therapists are exposed to a broad range of practical\, innovative\, sequential vestibular- visual activities and exercises for use with their clients. Clarification of the roles of therapists and developmental optometrists will facilitate in-depth collaboration between these professional so as to expedite efficient\, comprehensive case management. This course has been well received by occupational therapists\, physical therapists\, speech pathologist\, psychologists\, developmental optometrists\, and special educators. \nThe Vision Screening Kit\, which is referred to by and compliments the course materials\, is available for purchase for $59 (international duties and taxes may apply upon receiving the kit\, if shipping outside the United States). \nSchedule:\nDay 1:\nFriday\, February 12\, 2016 – 8:30am – 4:45pm CST \n8:30am-9:00am Check-in\n9:00am-4:45pm Workshop \nDay 2:\nSaturday\, February 13\, 2016 – 8:30am – 4:45pm CST \n8:30am-9:00am Check-in\n9:00am-4:15pm Workshop\n4:15pm-4:45pm Quiz & Evaluation \nContinuing Education:\nAOTA: Vital Links is approved by The American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) as a provider of continuing education.
