Brief Session Description : This session is curated for clinicians who spend a portion of their clinical time in the acute care hospital engaging in consult services. By nature, these consultations often include neurologic diagnoses. Although clinicians may be fellowship trained in either brain injury and/or spinal cord injury medicine, we do not always leave training with all of the tools that we need to manage a successful consult service. This session will go over some of the common issues that we see across neurologic diagnosis. The goal is to come away with practical knowledge that could be implemented in a consult service.
