Course Description
Neurological disorders are the major causes of disability-adjusted life years (DALY) and death. They add significantly to the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) and are a significant threat to public health. These disabilities are rarely present in isolation and require careful management. Through an efficient rehabilitation program, the debilitating effects of neurological disorders can be mitigated. The patients can be provided with an improved quality of life by ensuring that they realize their optimal emotional, physical, and functional capacity and social participation.
The Fellowship in Neurological Rehabilitation – Level ll course designed by Medvarsity aims to train you with the basics of managing neurological disorders. The course discusses physical, psychological, and functional management of the associated disorders and disabilities.
This neurological rehabilitationcourse includes recent guidelines, clinical case studies, contact program, and integration of live virtual courses (LVC), enabling the participants to:
● Understand the impact of various disabilities on patients resulting from a neurological condition.
● Manage and treat a range of neurological disorders and resulting disabilities.
● Manage outcome measures
The Neurological Rehabilitation Course will allow you to become an integral part of a neurological rehabilitation team at hospitals and communities and go on to lead such teams.
The Medvarsity Learning Design framework is based on Kirkpatrick’s model of e-learning and allows the systematic consumption and application of the content.
