180: What Does Intensity Training Look Like In Occupational Therapy? - Part 2

Sep 25, 2023

On today’s show we continued our conversation with neuro OT, Briana Elson. She is an AOTA fellowship trained neurologic occupational therapist from Brooks Rehabilitation in Jacksonville, FL who is also Board Certified in Physical Rehabilitation (BCPR) through AOTA and a Certified Brain Injury Specialist (CBIS) through Brain Injury Association of America. 

In today’s show you’ll learn how intensive therapy is applied from an occupational therapist’s perspective. We discuss constraint induced movement therapy, measuring heart rate, circuit training, and making iADL training intensive. You’ll hear the ways to measure intensity and scales we love to use as well as hear lots of examples of treatment ideas. We also discuss what co-treats look like with PT and OT for intense therapy and so much more!
