Care of the Neurologically Impaired Patient

Caring for patients with neurological disorders requires a clear understanding of complex physiology, well developed assessment skills and up to date information on best practices. This full day seminar will provide a great review of key concepts every nurse should know when caring for these patients, including neurological assessment, diagnostic studies, and an overview of common conditions such as stroke, seizure, brain tumors, coma and more. This class will be taught by two highly qualified nurses who have specialized in neurological nursing.
