Protecting Your License
The ARIZOTA Legislative and Government Affairs Committee has been very busy during 2011, and not just because of the severe budget problems in Arizona. In addition to the 2011 session of the Legislature, where the main focus was the budget (particularly AHCCCS and its budget), the Committee has been working on significantly more projects than usual, including: the possible new RFP from AzEIP and DES on Pediatric Developmental Disability (which was started in 2010); the Industrial Commission Fee Schedule (which ARIZOTA is working on for 2012); and the proposed statutory changes from the Arizona Board of Occupational Therapy Examiners (which includes the supervision issues).
Evaluation & Intervention for Visual Processing Impairment in Adult Acquired Brain Injury Part I
This two-day intensive workshop provides therapists with a clear understanding of how to effectively evaluate and treat visual perceptual dysfunction in adult patients following stroke and head trauma. This course addresses visual neglect and inattention, oculomotor dysfunction, visual field deficits, reduced visual acuity, and disorders of complex visual processing. Participants are taught how to identify deficiencies in functional performance which are caused by visual perceptual impairment and design practical short-term treatment interventions which increase independence in daily living activities. The course emph-asizes a functional and practical approach to evaluation, treatment, and documentation of visual perceptual dysfunction.
Dates: March 3-4, 2012
