ASHA Learning Pass

Person-centered, client-directed evaluations for individuals with dementia lead to personalized, functional intervention goals that permit the individuals to participate in meaningful activities. This course – which is broken into six 5-minute blocks – guides SLPs through conducting a person-centered assessment. Presenter Becky Khayum discusses two sample frameworks and case studies for this type of assessment and then takes you through a step-by-step template for conducting a person-centered assessment, including giving you time to practice and reflect.

Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:

• conduct a person-centered, client-directed assessment for people with dementia to yield functional, life participation goals
• integrate commonly used functional standardized tests/subtests into person-centered assessment for reimbursement purposes
