The ACRM Cognitive Rehabilitation Training bridges the gap between research and clinical practice, translating evidence-based guidelines into step-by step procedures for clinicians. Training offers a comprehensive overview of cognitive rehabilitation process (treatment planning, goal setting and progress monitoring), a foundation in basic neuroanatomy, and direct guidance and instruction on addressing impairments in attention, memory, executive functioning, social communication, and visuospatial and praxic functioning. General procedures and specific interventions for group-based treatment are also covered.
