Objectives2.Explain the importance of real life goals and real world settings in cognitive rehabilitation.
Case Study: AB
Money-Management
Executive-Functioning
Executive-functioning: involves the integration and
management of multiple cognitive skills. These complex processes enables individuals to attain goals and perform everyday activities.
Case Study AB:Money-Management
Cognitive and emotional factors impacting money-management:• Inability to Identify Needs vs. Wants• Poor Impulse Control• Emotional Regulation Struggles
Functional Cognitive Therapy in Practice
• Evaluate cognitive impairments • Identify impact of impairments in
daily functioning • Develop treatment goals• Implement treatment plan
“Train and Place” vs. “Place and Train”
• Train and Place lacks integration of real life settings
• Typically used in educational systems• Requires generalization of skills
The Importance of Place and Train in Brain Injury
• Incorporates real life settings• Eliminates generalization of skills• Builds natural supports
Case Study: CD
