Using IM to Rehabilitate Cognitive-Communicative Abilities Self-Study

Course Description:

Many patients present with developmental or acquired cognitive-communicative deficits that affect their daily productivity and their ability to relate to others effectively. A significant number of these patients are high-level and quickly plateau in response to traditional cognitive-linguistic therapy methods. These patients are perfect candidates for integrating Interactive Metronome (IM) into cognitive/language rehabilitation. By doing so, you can target specific skill areas, such as executive functions, memory, thought organization, and various levels of attention/concentration while addressing critical mental timing skills (AKA temporal processing). Identifying the right time to introduce higher level cognitive-linguistic tasks during IM can facilitate a more expedient recovery and return to the community.
