Involves the loss of kinesthetic memory of motor patterns – The motor plan for specific task may be lost (action)
What should cognitive rehabilitation be?
individualized, pt. goal directed, finally based, promote generalization
process training
Reinforce, strengthen or re-establish previously learned patterns of behavior
Strategy training
Establish new patterns of cognitive activity through compensatory cognitive mechanisms through use of environmental, internal, and external strategies
Compensatory education
educate on cognitive strengths and weaknesses
implemented when re-establishement is not possible
hierarchy of skills
alert > attention (awareness) > memory (awareness) > executive functions (awareness)
Should therapist expect or program for generalization?
program
what are booster shots?
plan for a possible success after fail
full salient cues
overt demonstration
specific salient cues
process cue for self-monitoring
opportunity salient cues
pause
spatial salient cues
use environment
temporal salient cues
timed cues
How to grade activity?
structure, length, environment, complexity
Why make tasks predictable?
helps pt. give meaning to task
Behavioral prosthetic
rubber band to smack wrist
cognitive prosthetic

What does visual imagery specifically help with?
episodic memory deficits
What is semantic elaboration?
use different was to recall
spell, write down. say out loud
What is usually the return for orientation?
Person-Place-time-situation
spaced retrieval
recalling over repetitively longer periods of time
if retrieval is successful, lengthen space
can be combined with errorless learning
Prospective Memory Process Training (PROMT)
Increase delay as pt. memory lengthens
for individual’s with severe memory deficits
can encode but cannot hold onto information
PQRST
preview info to be recalled
Question about text?
Read the material
State the answers or read until able to answer
Test regularly for retention for information
SING
remember what you hear stop identify main point never mind details get the gist
What are the steps of problem solving
Be aware
anticipate
execute
eval
What is gesture to command apraxia testing? What are the two subsets?
transitive - with object
intransitive - without object
Gesture to imitation
show - reciprocate
show - tell -reciprocate
gesture in response to tool
show tool and ask how it is used
gesture comprehension
OT shows gesture
pt. tells what action is
constructional disorder
inability to copy shapes
deficit in spatial organization
R spatially disorganized
L less detail
broca’s aphasia
non-fluent
good comprehension
poor repetition
TMA aphasia transcortical motor
non-fluent - difficulty initiating and organizing response
good comprehension
good repetition
global aphasia

poor comprehension
poor repetition
isolation aphasia
non-fluent
poor comprehension
good repetition
wernicke’s aphasia

poor repetition
anomia aphasia
fluent - word retrieval and naming
good comprehension
good repetition
SLOW
short
less
observe
wait
CMS
Centers for medicaid and medicare
MDS
medical data set
way we communicate with CMS

01 Dependent - helper does all
02 Max A - Helper does More than 1/2, holds limbs
03 Mod A - helper does LESS than half, supports
04 supervision - touch assist, vc’s
05 Set-up or clean-up
06 Independent

09 not applicable, if not done in PLOF before exacerbation
88 not completed due to medical or safety concerns
Intellectual Awareness
state but not monitor problems
someone else has to initiate therapy
self-rating skills
achieved when: can demonstrate knowledge of problem and recognize implications
Emergent awareness
know when problem is happening as it occurs
Strategies need to be initiated by specific situations or events
Identify and self-correct errors during actual task performance
Document through observation of clients actions/behaviors (video)
anticipatory
able to predict and anticipate problems
Select strategies that trigger client recognition that a problem is occurring, or will occur if cognitive strategies are not used

Cognitive disability model and levels
6 hierarchical levels
major cog impairment
Least restrictions while remaining I
- bed - one word commands
- some initiation with sit and stand - imitation
3 . familiar with cues - repetitive manual - cues with familiar tasks slower but able - visual
- trial and error, selfish - verbal explanation and demonstration
- plan and anticipatory - verbal and written
Neurofunctional approach
specific task with repetition in organic environment task analysis reinforcement errorless training vanishing cues chaining
