Region 10 Sponsored: Combining Intervention Approaches with Sensory Integration: A Focus on Executive Function
Description
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">This course addresses the functional impact and complexity of the demands of a child’s occupation and focuses on the clinical reasoning process utilized in identifying, evaluating, and intervening with children with sensory based and executive function disorders. The presenter will use lectures, case vignettes, video analysis, large and small group discussions, and guided exercises to convey principles of sensory integration theory, executive function approaches, and other interventions geared toward addressing the participation issues presented by children. Topics include the following: Clinical Reasoning in the Assessment Process, Basics of Combining SI Theory and Treatment with Other Approaches, Combining SI Theory with Interventions Targeting Executive Functions.</span><br /><br /><br /></p>

<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">2. Apply a systematic clinical reasoning model to identify areas of need and develop an intervention plan combining intervention approaches.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">3. Integrate evaluation data obtained through multiple methods with appropriate interventions.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">4. Discuss and analyze cases focused on identifying key components of both single and blended practices in multiple contexts.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">5. Choose the best evidence to support choices in intervention.</span></p>
