SUMMARY:Using Gravity to Facilitate Sensorimotor Development in Infants and Children
DESCRIPTION:Gravity influences infant development in many ways\, from triggering vestibular processing to developing and strengthening muscles. Due to a number of factors\, including improper positioning\, lack of typical sensorimotor opportunities\, other environmental factors\, and/or diagnoses of failure to thrive\, autism\, sensory processing disorders\, etc.\, many of today’s children are delayed in their sensorimotor development when compared with past generations. These delays are particularly apparent in lack of core strength\, proximal stability\, and upper extremity coordination. \nAlong with other treatment strategies\, gravity can be used by therapists to enhance development\, especially in the areas of sensorimotor processing\, reflex integration and motor coordination. A variety of intervention strategies that engage vestibular mechanisms and take advantage of gravitational influences\, including some innovative equipment\, will be discussed and demonstrated via labs and video presentation. \nLocation\nOnline \nSchedule\nFull Agenda \nFriday\, August 12\, 2016\, 8:30am – 4:30pm CDT \nLevel\nIntroductory \nCourse Objectives\nUpon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nDiscuss the role that gravity plays in typical infant development.\nList the ways that positioning and other environmental influences can obstruct or enhance sensorimotor development.\nDemonstrate at least 3-4 strategies to facilitate reflex integration and sensorimotor development.\nDescribe innovative equipment for enhancing sensorimotor development and how to use them.\n\n\n		\n		Continuing Ed \n		\n \nVital Links is an AOTA approved provider of continuing education. Participants will receive 6.0 contact hours or 0.6 AOTA CEUs for this course. \nAOTA Classification Code: Client Factors\, Performance Skills\, & Intervention\nAOTA Target Audience: Occupational Therapy\nAOTA Completion Requirements: Full Attendance\, Quiz \nThe assignment of AOTA CEUs does not imply endorsement of specific course content\, products\, or clinical procedures by AOTA.\n\n		\n\n		\n		Accessibility \n		\nIn compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act\, Vital Links will make every effort to honor requests for reasonable accommodations made by individuals with disabilities\, including but not limited to written transcripts\, multiple viewing attempts\, and increased amount of time to complete training activities. It is a priority for Vital Links to ensure participation in all courses and activities for all individuals. Vital Links is committed to ensuring non-discrimination and to resolving any complaints related to a disability in a prompt and equitable manner.\n\n		\n\n		\n		Cancellation \n		\nCancellations must be in writing and received by Vital Links two weeks prior to course; refund will not be granted after that date. Approved course refunds will be issued after the final course date (minus $50 processing fee). You may transfer full registration to another Vital Links course if you notify us two weeks (in-person course) or one week (online course) in advance of a course you are cancelling. \nVital Links reserves the right to cancel any course with due cause and refund in full. Participants purchasing non-refund-able airfare tickets are encouraged to inquire as to course availability before final purchase. Registrant bears sole responsibility for transportation to course. Weather or transportation difficulties are not the responsibility of Vital Links\, and failure of a chosen means of transportation is not grounds for registration fee refund when course is held.\n\n		\n\n		\n		Compatibility \n		\nThere are basic computer requirements for Vital Links webinars on WebEx. We have a complete breakdown of computer requirements and internet connections that will assist you. View our Support section.\n\n		\n\n		\n		Purchase Orders \n		\nIf you choose to register via Purchase Order\, please attach a scanned copy of your completed and signed form to your “shopping cart” during checkout. Otherwise\, you may fax the form to: 1-866-636-9720. Note: please add an administrative fee of $15.00 to each order submitted via Purchase Order.\n\n		\nTo register by phone\, call: 608-270-5424\n
