Description
Powered mobility is a powerful option to provide infants with cerebral palsy, irrespective of motor trajectory, with self-initiated mobility to explore, interact, participate and learn. This module will guide you through practical evidence-informed strategies to assess, trial and implement powered mobility options for infants with cerebral palsy.
By completing this module, you will learn to:
- Explain the benefits of providing ON time mobility options for infants with cerebral palsy
- Explain the different types of early powered mobility used by infants with cerebral palsy
- Analyse early markers of typography and severity of cerebral palsy to guide decisions on the appropriate use of early powered mobility options
- Apply clinical decision-making skills to select and implement early powered mobility for an infant with cerebral palsy
- Apply family centered practice to support safe and motivating early powered mobility use in daily routines
