Utility of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability,
and Health (ICF) in Geriatric Practice

Description

*This webinar is scheduled for 7:00 PM EDT / 4:00 PM PDT (Adjust for your time zone)

The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is more than a framework—it’s a universal language for understanding health, functioning, and participation. Applicable across all ages, diagnoses, and settings—from hospitals and outpatient clinics to schools, home health, and community programs—the ICF helps identify both facilitators and barriers to an individual’s engagement in life activities. This session will show you how to harness the ICF to guide clear, targeted care planning, streamline documentation, and strengthen collaboration across disciplines. You’ll also learn how to efficiently navigate even the most complex medical record to pinpoint the data that truly drives effective clinical decision-making.
