Statement of Need and Target Audience

Educational opportunities that promote evidence-based interventions for pediatric cognitive rehabilitation are needed by clinicians to provide optimum care for individuals with brain injury. ACRM Cognitive Rehabilitation Training provides such an opportunity by presenting evidence-based standards and guidelines for clinical practice and translating them into step-by-step procedures for use by clinicians. The interventions described can be readily used by occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, psychologists, and other rehabilitation professionals.

Learning Objectives

To support the attainment of knowledge, competence, and performance, the learner should be able to achieve the following objectives:

Explain the interaction between age at injury and developmental stages of brain development
Describe techniques for improving attention and the steps involved in carrying out interventions for external memory strategies in children with brain injury
Describe common evidence-based visual and motor interventions used in children with brain injury
Describe specific strategies for structuring interventions for awareness, executive functioning, and behavioral/emotional self-regulation
Discuss a framework for interacting with schools and families to develop interventions to improve student’s ability to learn, be successful in school, and transition to adult roles
