This one-hour intermediate level course for PT/PTAs and OT/OTAs is part of a series of Accelerated Clinical Practice courses. Neurological disorders increase with age and are the leading cause of disability across the world. The WHO International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) can be used as a framework for the neurorehabilitation process to facilitate assessment, set goals, and select appropriate outcome measures and interventions. This course reviews the ICF model, with a focus on the qualitative measure of movement/task analysis for neurological conditions in order to support comprehensive assessment of activities of daily living (ADLs) and function. Several core tasks will be discussed, emphasizing analysis of observable constructs and application of task and environmental variations. The course includes a case study incorporating task analysis to reinforce the course content and support the therapist’s critical thinking.
