Learning Objectives:

• Upon completion, participants will be able to understand the current neuroscientific evidence for Functional Movement Disorders (FMDs)
• Upon completion, participants will understand the FMD physician’s role for evaluating and triaging FMD patients in the acute hospital setting.
• Upon completion, participants will understand methods for assessing and managing FMDs in the outpatient clinic setting, including establishing an outpatient FMD clinic.
• Upon completion, participants will understand the evidence basis for combining Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for treating FMDs across treatment settings.
• Upon completion, participants will be able to understand the extent and kinds of physical symptom improvement that can follow efficacious rehabilitation for FMDs from observing video case presentations.
