What is it?
Neuropsychological rehabilitation is an active process that helps the patient to optimise the recovery of higher functions (attention, perception, memory, executive functions, calculation…) to better understand the alterations presented and to develop strategies to compensate for these disorders.
Who is it for?
It is aimed at people with cognitive deficit caused by a stroke, head injury, tumour, infectious disease, anoxia and other neurological diseases (multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, etc.) who present problems with:
- Attention
- Information processing speed
- Memory
- Executive function
- Calculation
- Language
Techniques used
The programme is designed to use telemedicine to work on cognitive functions from the home itself through the GNPT® platform. This is done with the support of a neuropsychologist who plans and supervises the patient’s treatment programme in a personalised way.
Type of intervention
- Initial face-to-face neuropsychological assessment.
- 60 sessions of personalised cognitive treatment based on the initial neuropsychological assessment that allows staff to establish the profile of cognitive impairment.
The sessions (approximately 60 minutes long) that the patient performs in their own home through the platform are aimed at enhancing cognitive functions. The neuropsychologist plans the tasks and controls the process and performance, adjusting the scheduling if necessary.
The intensity of the treatments (number of weekly sessions) will be determined by each professional according to their clinical criteria, taking into account the characteristics of the patient.
- Follow-up visits with the neuropsychologist, aimed at the patient and/or family, with the aim of discussing how the case is evolving, providing compensation strategies and addressing emotional and behavioural aspects. These visits can be done face-to-face, or virtually by videoconference.
