– Apply the American Academy of Neurology guidelines for the management of common neurological disorders

– Assess relevant treatment options and apply them as appropriate

– Analyze appropriate and cost-effective imaging and laboratory studies and their indications and contraindications when evaluating a patient

– Predict and manage patient expectations regarding prognosis and rehabilitation

– Identify methods, support, and resources for patient self-management for those patients with chronic neurological conditions, for example multiple sclerosis, Parkinson disease

– Identify the social networks of interpersonal connections that influence positive outcomes in post-stroke patients
