Voices of Experience: Optimizing Engagement and Outcomes
with Veterans and Service Members with mTBI
Program Description: Nearly every VHA/DHA Speech Pathologist will evaluate and treat patients with mTBI. They are a complex population with many comorbidities. Research has shown that how clinicians educate patients regarding their symptoms and their etiology can impact their recovery. It is key to establish a clinician/patient alliance to address direct functional cognitive complaints via compensation. Clinicians have expressed feelings of burn out and difficulty making progress with this population. A panel of subject matter experts will answer questions regarding the complexities of this population, and the clinician will come away with useful tools to utilize when evaluating and treating this population.
Note this course is 90 minutes so please request approval from your supervisor as needed.
