Certified Stroke Rehabilitation Specialist (CSRS)
The CSRS™ enables physical and occupational therapists to become preeminent stroke clinicians through a rigorous set of courses culminating in a written examination and internationally-recognized credential.
Overview
The program consists of a four-tiered, stroke educational program. The certification begins with 9-hours of foundational content, delivered via an online learning management system. This content includes foundational concepts in stroke and neurorehabilitation (e.g., motor learning; neuroanatomy), and lays the groundwork for live labs and didactics. Required “knowledge checks” are delivered after each online learning module.
After completing all of the online learning content, attendees take part in live didactics and labs which build on this core knowledge, occurring in a Friday-Saturday-Sunday format on a single weekend.
The four-course series culminates in an online test administered via a secure website. Successful test completion with a score of 80% or above grants the CSRS™ certification, which are placed behind one’s professional credentials.

This course is being held in the Kansas City, Missouri area. The course will be at the Saint Luke’s North Hospital: Barry Medical Park which is located at 5844 NW Barry Rd, Kansas City, MO 64154. The course will be on the Ground floor in the Hawthorne Conference Room. Participants are encouraged to park near the 5844 building – and NOT the main entrance. There is a large parking lot that is marked for employees (south lot) and that would be the best place for them to park, especially on Friday. Over the weekend, they can park closer to the building. The facility will provide a light breakfast and a snack at the afternoon break. Lunch is on your own. There is a cafeteria available onsite on the 1st floor of the main hospital, accessible from Barry Medical Park building. Additionally, several other options are near the facility including: Chick-fil-A, Wendy’s, Freddy’s Frozen Custard and Steakburgers, McDonalds, Burger King, Raising Cane’s, and Whataburger.
While we do not block hotel rooms or make recommendations, the hosting site did provide us with the names of several hotels near the facility. These are: SpringHill Suites by Marriott, La Quinta Inn and Suite by Wyndham, Holiday Inn Express & Suites, Embassy Suites by Hilton, and Homewood Suites by Hilton.
