Course Reviews

The course was very interesting and informative.
cd, Nov. 25, 2012

Many of the studies cited by the authors undermined my earlier training/beliefs and opened me up to new possibilities.I wish the exam had an explanation or page reference for the correct answer. I question a couple of these. (Guess I'll need to do more review than I thought...)
Nonetheless I found this course to be extremely informative and concisely presented (Packed, in fact.) And it has rekindled my enthusiasm for working with stroke victims at my hospital. Thank you for offering this course and for the responsive online support.

What to focus on in early rehab; importance of early mobility.
