Course OVerview
This conference again brings national speakers on hot topics in Rehabilitation. As we navigate the road through the care
continuum, the focus is on doing it safely for the patient and the provider:
With increasing emphasis on successfully transitioning patients between settings, case managers and rehab nurses must
attend to the details to facilitate a smooth move to the appropriate levels of care. It is essential that case managers know
the common reasons for transition failure and how to intervene to reduce readmissions and post discharge problems. This
session will explore problem areas in transitions, how to use the variety of care settings available, and interventions for
inpatient and external case managers to use.
INTENDED AUDIENCE
This conference will be valuable to nurses and other health care professionals and personnel working in hospitals, home
care, case management, sub-acute, extended care, or assisted living facilities and other related venues managing the
rehabilitation of individuals with disabling or chronic conditions. Rehabilitation is a process, not a place.
PLANNING COMMITTEE
Michelle Fernamberg, MHA, BSN, RN, CRRN, Nurse Manager, Acute Rehab, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
Michelle Holder, RN, MSN, CRRN, CCM, Rehab Program Manager, Straith Hospital, Southfield, MI
The best practice approach for patient falls is the implementation of safer environment of care for the whole patient cohort,
identification of specific, modifiable fall risk factors and implementation of interventions targeting risk factors so as to
prevent falls and interventions to reduce injury for those that do fall. There is no “cookie cutter” approach to patient falls.
Workplace violence in the healthcare environment in increasing. Rehab nurses and other health care professionals must
focus on stopping this alarming trend and develop a clear awareness understanding of what workplace violence is, who is
at risk and how it can be prevented.

You will learn to identify key reasons for readmissions and post discharge problems. The value of understanding the
different
care settings, services, challenges and solutions is paramount for preparing the patient and family for transition
and expectations for the next settings. This conference will discuss and identify the latest evidenced based Best Practice
approach on fall prevention programs, including reducing fall related injuries, fall prevention resources, differentiated rating
scales, and applying fall risk screening tools in relation to assessment. There is not one approach for everyone. The
assessment is key and must be drilled down to find meaning. As you continue the road safely, you will define workplace
violence, and develop strategies to increase staff competency in recognition and presentation of disruptive clinical
environments.
