Clinical Applications Of Durable Medical Equipment For Activities Of Daily Living
Presented by Michelle Lange, OTR/L, ATP/SMS
Live WebinarThu, Aug 6, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT   Starts in 14h 40m
Course: #7155Level: Introductory1 Hour
Clients who use wheelchair seating and mobility equipment often have other durable medical equipment (DME) needs, as well. Durable medical equipment is typically used to assist activities of daily living and so clinicians are an active participant in selecting the appropriate equipment for a client’s needs. This course will address bath/shower equipment, toileting equipment, patient lifts, and adaptive car seats.

The Missing Rotation: How Movement Development Influences Participation Across Childhood
Presented by Cara Koscinski, OTD, MOT, OTR/L, CAS
Live WebinarTue, Aug 11, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #7057Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Movement development is not simply the acquisition of motor milestones. Children develop postural control, bilateral coordination, weight shifting, trunk mobility, and movement efficiency through opportunities to move, explore, and interact with their environments. While movement occurs across multiple planes, transverse-plane and rotational experiences are often overlooked despite their role in developing coordinated movement patterns. Reduced opportunities for varied movement experiences may contribute to challenges with crossing midline, bilateral coordination, motor planning, postural control, and participation in everyday activities. This intermediate-level course examines movement development from birth through childhood through the lens of movement variability, postural development, and functional participation. Participants will explore how movement experiences contribute to the development of foundational movement skills and how limitations in movement across planes may influence participation in learning, play, self-care, and other daily activities. Strategies for interdisciplinary observation, communication, and support planning will also be discussed. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

Beyond The Basics: Precision Practice In The Classroom
Presented by Aditi Mehra, DHSc, OTR/L
Live WebinarThu, Aug 13, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #7128Level: Introductory2 Hours
This course takes a deeper dive into the practical skills school-based OTPs need to function confidently on educational teams. Participants will examine present levels, educational impact, IEP goal writing, service recommendations, data collection, progress monitoring, and collaborative decision-making. Emphasis is placed on writing participation-focused goals, aligning OT services with classroom routines, collaborating with teachers and related service providers, and communicating OT’s value clearly to administrators and families. Recent research supports stronger OT–teacher collaboration, embedded service models, and collaborative goal development rather than isolated discipline-specific practice.

Evidence-Based Management of Patients On GLP-1 Therapy: An OT Perspective
Presented by Scott Cheatham, PhD, DPT, OCS, ATC, CSCS
Live WebinarTue, Aug 18, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #7060Level: Intermediate1 Hour
The GLP-1 medications have become a popular treatment for individuals with type II diabetes or obesity. Healthcare professionals needs to understand these medications including the benefits, adverse effects, and contraindications. For some individuals, these medications can have consequence such as loss of lean mass loss which can affect their function, health, and longevity. This presentation will provide an evidence-based update of this topic as it applies to the occupational therapy practitioner.

Tracheostomy Fundamentals For Interprofessional Healthcare Providers
Presented by Carmin Bartow, MS, CCC-SLP
Live WebinarThu, Aug 20, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #7058Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course provides healthcare professionals with a practical foundation in tracheostomy management. Content includes upper airway anatomy and physiology, physiologic changes associated with tracheostomy, tracheostomy tube types and components, and key aspects of care such as cuff management, humidification, secretion management, speaking valves, and safety considerations. This course is designed for an interprofessional audience and emphasizes collaborative strategies to support safe, coordinated care for patients with tracheostomy across settings.

Interoception For The Older Adult
Presented by Ingrid Provident, EdD, OTR/L, FAOTA
Live WebinarTue, Aug 25, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #7024Level: Introductory1 Hour
Interoception, a key indicator of how we feel, can be broadly defined as the sensations arising from signals originating within the body. As such, interoception is critical for our sense of embodiment, motivation, and well-being. Despite its importance, interoception remains poorly understood within modern science. Interoceptive sensitivity has been found to be associated with affect and cognition. As a person ages, the processes by which one senses, interprets, integrates, and regulates signals from within oneself change. This presentation will overview Interoception, the perception and interpretation of internal body signals, such as heartbeat, hunger, and respiratory rate, and present evidence-based findings as to how this “sixth sense” impacts illness or health. Interoception serves as our internal barometer, guiding our responses to the environment based on our body’s needs and physiologic state. This course is designed for an interprofessional audience.

Promoting Regulation For All Students
Presented by Tere Bowen-Irish, OTR/L
Live WebinarThu, Aug 27, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #7078Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Self-regulation is an essential ability to navigating daily life, shifting, adjusting, and flowing. In the context of school-based intervention, we often address those students who are "over the top". But what about the other 95%? A therapist may often pick up subtle dysregulation cues that can escalate into behaviors that don't aid classroom access. This seminar is about foundational abilities, based on development and sometimes diagnosis, that may upset the flow of the classroom. Let's look at the unique consultative, point-of-performance, and classroom management ideas we can offer in a Tier 1 or Tier 2 approach. This course is for an interdisciplinary audience.

Maximizing Aquatic Equipment: Tools Of The Trade For OT And PT
Presented by Andrea Salzman, MS, PT
Live WebinarTue, Sep 1, 2026 at 6:00 pm EDT
Course: #7166Level: Intermediate2 Hours
This course examines clinical decision-making related to the selection, application, and progression of aquatic therapy equipment across rehabilitation populations and age groups. Content focuses on how commonly used tools—such as flotation devices, resistance equipment, mats, boards, and pool jets—alter support, resistance, instability, and sensory input to influence posture, balance, gait, and strength training. Participants will explore how aquatic equipment can be intentionally dosed and progressed to support therapeutic goals while maintaining patient safety and meaningful transfer to land-based interventions. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.

Pathways To Participation: Supporting People Experiencing Homelessness
Presented by Caitlin Synovec, OTD, OTR/L, BCMH
Live WebinarThu, Sep 10, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #7082Level: Introductory1 Hour
Occupational therapy practitioners have a distinct role in supporting people experiencing homelessness, which may occur across several homeless services and settings. This course will provide an overview of the occupational needs of adults experiencing homelessness and present OT-specific interventions to support the community living and occupational needs of this population. It will also address OT's role in an interdisciplinary team.

Cultural Contexts In Pediatric Feeding
Presented by Tara Konradi, OTD, OTR/L
Live WebinarTue, Sep 15, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #7098Level: Introductory1 Hour
Cultural Contexts in Pediatric Feeding is a continuing education course designed to help healthcare professionals apply culturally responsive clinical reasoning when supporting children and families with feeding concerns. The course explores how culture, family routines, food traditions, caregiver beliefs, access, sensory preferences, and participation demands shape pediatric feeding routines and intervention planning. Participants will learn to identify relevant contextual factors, distinguish culturally based feeding practices from clinical concerns, and develop family-centered recommendations that support safe, functional, respectful, and meaningful mealtime participation. The course also emphasizes the value of interprofessional collaboration in delivering culturally responsive, family-centered feeding services.
