The main objective of the course is to train in neuropsychological rehabilitation techniques that will qualify them to carry out intervention activities with patients and users.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:
- To know the principles of neuropsychological rehabilitation, its models and functioning principles and to revise the principal cognitive domains, as well as the most common cognitive deficits in each of them.
- To familiarise and learn how to manage the cognitive rehabilitation REHACOP program
- To acquire enough knowledge to be able to carry a real intervention with patients using the REHACOP.
The course has two parts:
- The first one consists on revising the contributions of neuropsychology to the field of rehabilitation of the most frequent psychiatric and neurological disorders. It emphasizes the characteristics of neuropsychological interventions and the standardised intervention programs and other no standardised intervention strategies. Similarly, the course will describe and develop the experimental experiences that are being carried out involving neuropsychological rehabilitation in multicentre studies and its possible applications to other collaborating centres.
- The second part consists on a practical workshop with the neuropsychological rehabilitation program for psychosis and schizophrenia, REHACOP. Here, the students will get familiar with the program, they will learn its characteristics and how to implement it, and they will acquire all the necessary knowledge to implement it with their patients.
