however, people often feel overwhelmed and experience
barriers in obtaining what they need. This workshop will

Benefits for Your Child’s Body, Mind & Spirit –
K A
Workshop 2
Melissa McGinnis, PT, MPT, Senior Pediatric Intensive PT, EuroPēdse National Center for Intensive Pediatric PT
Research continues to point to the benefits of physical
activity for children who have gross motor disorders
caused from cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, traumatic
brain injuries, and other non-progressive neuromuscular
disorders. While the primary goal of Intensive therapy is to
teach new and lasting functional physical skills to children
within this population, there are other benefits that are
equally important to the child’s well being. As Intensive
Pediatric PT has evolved we are recognizing additional
benefits such as improved self-esteem and confidence as
the body gets stronger. This presentation will provide
definitions for European-inspired Intensive Pediatric PT, the
benefits of this emerging therapy, explanations of the
European-inspired concepts and tools used during an
intensive PT session, and benefits beyond physical that are
based on increased activity levels. The speaker, who is an
expert in this emerging field of Intensive Pediatric Physical
Therapy, will review the research and theories highlighting
the need for Intensive Pediatric PT and provide compelling
video samples of how this model of therapy is creating
better outcomes for children at several levels. More

2:30pm – 3:30pm Screening of "Not Home" A
Documentary About Kids Living In Nursing Facilities
– Workshop 1
A S
Narcel Reedus, Filmmaker
Can you imagine how a child feels growing up in a nursing
home? Celebrating Christmas, birthdays and other
milestones alongside elderly bedridden patients is the
mainstay for thousands of children with a developmental
disability throughout America. Award-winning filmmaker,
Narcel Reedus, reveals the stories of children growing up
without a childhood in the heart-felt documentary, "Not
Home." Abilities Expo is pleased to screen a portion of this
99-minute film that examines the complex national
phenomenon of children living in nursing homes and staterun institutions. Often times parents of medically-fragile
children feel forced to make the decision to institutionalize
their child because some states disproportionately allocate
funding for brick and mortar institutions rather than the less
expensive home and community based living. Time for
questions and answers will be available following the
session. Learn more at www.nothomedocumentary.com. A
limited number of DVD's will be available for purchase
following the screening.

2:30pm – 3:30pm Pediatric Power Mobility:
Functional Solutions for Kids – Workshop 2
K A
Amy Morgan, PT, ATP, Pediatric & Standing Specialist,
Permobil, Inc.
When is the right time for power mobility? What are the
benefits of providing access to power mobility early in a
child’s life? This course will address these questions and
help the audience understand and articulate a child’s skills
and abilities, prior to prescribing a power wheelchair.
Pediatric mobility issues can be extremely complex. It is
important for members of the rehab team to differentiate
between therapeutic mobility and functional mobility with all
clients; but it is particularly important in the pediatric
population. This session will discuss the various types of
mobility assistive equipment (MAE) as they apply to
pediatrics. Various wheelchair seat functions will also be
explored regarding their effect on a child’s functional
performance. Through the use of research and case studies,
participants will learn the importance of a thorough
subjective evaluation in addition to physical examination to
determine the most appropriate mobility device for pediatric
clients. Time will also be allotted for audience participation
and discussion.

K A
Ambassador
Karen Kain, mother of Lorrin who was grievously vaccine
injured in 1994, shares her story of how she went from being
a broken-hearted, desperate mother who was isolated and
alone to accepting, enjoying and even thriving as the parent of
a unique child. Karen will tell the process that led her to a loving
and fulfilling parenting experience, as she learned life lessons
from Lorrin. Karen will describe how she found success in
getting from despair to discovery to love of self. She brings
you tips she learned from others along the way – parents,
health-care workers, and more – along with discoveries of her
own. If you are new to this journey, join Karen for this
workshop to gain support and ideas for thriving in your new
life. Learn more about Karen at www.lorrinsworld.com.

Lee Johnson, Manager Planning, Production and Control, Kids
UP by Quantum
K A
The world of seating and positioning is full of “clinical”
language and concepts that can be difficult. This session is
designed to help bring clarity through a fast-paced hour of realtime, rubber-meets-the-road information and training for you,
the front line players caring for a person with mobility
challenges. Bridging the gap between the intentions of
clinicians and the day-to-day challenges faced by caregivers,
this workshop will bring you a new perspective and practical
tools to help achieve both comfort and therapeutic outcomes.
Learn the basics of how the body actually “sits” properly, the
most common “positioning” enemies of healthy sitting,
strategies and creative ways to address specific challenges.
You will leave with a framework for how you can partner
together with your care team to give your loved ones some of
the best of both worlds!
