Train with us and acquire in-depth knowledge of the peculiarities of Alzheimer’s disease so that you are able to offer more personalized treatment to these people"

The reduced mobility that is common in Alzheimer’s patients, due to the effects of the disease itself, causes them to become increasingly dependent, which is exacerbated by increased muscle weakness, thereby further reducing independence.. Therefore, physiotherapists must perform their work correctly as it is a key factor in increasing these patients’ independence and improving their physical conditions. With this postgraduate certificate, TECH wants to enhance the training of these professionals, offering them the most complete information on the care of these patients.
 
This program will provide the theoretical knowledge required to understand the relationship between cortical atrophy of the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital areas with aphasia, apraxias and agnosias, and will describe the types of dementia and its risk factors. The physiotherapist will also learn to differentiate the different types of evolution of the disease, assess the alteration of the ability to perform Daily Living Activities (DLA) and the need to educate caregivers. 

Additionally, the objectives to slow down the deterioration and try to maintain functionality and independence as long as possible will be explained, and tools will be provided to stimulate memory, cognitive stimulation, behavioral therapies and DLA training, complementing them with functional, recreational and leisure physiotherapy techniques. 

The teaching staff of this program is composed of specialists in the areas of intervention of each pathology, from prestigious health centers and universities, sensitized to continuous quality learning based on scientific evidence to offer a holistic approach to the patient with neurodegenerative disease, and committed to quality teaching through new educational technologies. Learning is done through real cases, guided by an expert, and continuous evaluation through assessment and self-assessment activities and exercises.

In short, TECH has set out to create contents of the highest teaching and educational quality that will turn students into successful professionals, following the highest quality standards in teaching at an international level. Therefore, TECH presents this program with comprehensive content that will help become elite neurological physiotherapists. .
