Using Client-Centered Practice & Patient-Reported Outcomes
A webinar sponsored by the Retirement Research Foundation (RRF) and the Center for Rehabilitation Outcome Research (CROR)
January 14, 12:00 to 1:00 PM CST
Description: Patient Reported Outcome Measurements (PROMs) provide clinicians with an efficient method of assessing a patient's perspective of their own progress. PROMs are the focus of many research studies and are used in some clinical practice settings. Because PROMs are relatively new to rehabilitation, there are many questions about appropriate utilization of these measures. Are PROMs reliable in my patient/client population? Will these instruments provide a valid measurement of my patient's/client's progress? How do PROMs compare to performance-based measures? Should a PROM be used in conjunction with a performance-based measure?

This webinar will provide an overview of PROMs and begin to answer these and other common questions.

Objectives: At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
* Define terminology that is commonly used in Patient Reported Outcome Measurement (PROM)
* Describe the benefits of using PROMs in clinical practice

Cost: Free (First come first serve)
