Submission Types
Paper Sessions
Papers may be Clinical, Research/Scientific, or Other. QI, evidence-based practice, or other clinical projects typically include relevance and applicability of a specific topic to rehabilitation nursing practice, goal or purpose statement, methods, outcomes, and implications for practice by contributing to nursing knowledge or solving critical problems in rehabilitation. Research abstracts typically include a problem statement, significance, research questions/hypotheses, methods including design and measurement, data analysis, results, discussion, and implications for practice, education, leadership, and/or future research.
Case Study
Case studies should reflect advanced clinical nursing practice in a rehabilitation setting and demonstrate implementation of creative, innovative, and evidence-based solutions to a complex patient care problem. These presentations should describe a specific clinical problem or issue, present the problem, generate discussion about various possible solutions, then present the solution implemented and outcome. In order to invite audience participation, abstract submissions for case studies must include two questions the authors will pose to the audience. Case study presentations should address the following: Case Overview; The Nursing Process (assessment diagnoses; plan; implementation of creative, innovative evidence-based interventions; and evaluation including outcomes); Evidence of critical thinking.
Keynote Session
A talk that is based on a main underlying theme which will spark the interest of the rehabilitation nursing community. The description should include 1-3 key concepts or takeaways, and your credibility to talk on the subject.
Poster Session
A visual presentation. For in-person presentations, all presenters must be available to during poster exhibition sessions for questions from participants. All poster presentations will need to be submitted as a virtual poster, even if they are also selected to present in-person. Poster presenters will have the opportunity to submit an audio recording to correspond with their virtual posters. In general, clinical or research posters should include background/significance, methods/approach, results /findings, discussion of results/findings, and implications for practice.
General Education Session
A session which is usually 1-1.5 hours in length which addresses a single subject pertinent to rehabilitation nursing. The session content should expand the knowledge, skills and/or practice of the conference attendees and be based upon evidence-based practice or research. These sessions should promote learning and actively engage learners. There may be multiple speakers.
