FUNCTIONAL COGNITION AND VISION THERAPIST
This role will be a fulltime position split between carrying a functional cognition caseload and a vision caseload.
Our Functional Cognition Therapist knows the literature on key instructional principles that guide treatment of patients with cognitive-communication impairments. They implement computer-based training or task specific training in synchrony with metacognitive strategy training and use a neurocognitive model to understand patient impairments and strengths and heighten diagnosis of cognitive syndromes or agnosias.
Our Vision Therapist uses a comprehensive assessment to prioritize treatment targets and is efficient with administration of all vision and perceptual assessments. They apply existing primary research so treatment protocols are optimally dosed in the scope of practice for visual rehab and use specialized interventions with evidence in conjunction with recommendations from neuro-optometry or neuro-ophthalmology. The Vision Therapist will effectively interact with neuro-optometrist or neuro-ophthalmologist and related medical professionals to establish communication regarding follow up assessments and interventions.
