    Book SynopsisEssential Concepts of Occupation for Occupational Therapy is an accessible introduction to vital concepts in occupational science for the occupational therapy practitioner or student. It invites therapists to view and understand their clients differentlyâby using an âœoccupational lensâ to focus on the lives of their clients as everyday doers. It addresses the key questions at the heart of understanding humans as occupational beings: What do people typically do? And, where, when, how, why, and with whom do they do it?These questions organize the key concepts from occupational science that form the first chapters of this book, enabling therapists to better understand their clientsâand enabling their clients to better understand the importance of occupation to their well-being. Additional chapters clearly describe how therapists can use occupation-based models to apply an expanded view of occupation and make evaluation and intervention more relevant and beneficial to their clients. A final chapter examines trends and lifestyle changes occurring in the 21st century to anticipate how these might impact future practice.Through use of engaging and thoughtful cases that illustrate many of the concepts, this guide will help practitioners clearly understand their clients as doers, while also providing enhanced ways for therapist to confidently apply these concepts in practice.Table of ContentsPreface 1.

The text spends considerable time differentiating neuropsychology from alternative career paths, and provides personal accounts, contributions from neuropsychologists in various settings, and case examples of different patient populations to illustrate what it is like to train to become and work as a neuropsychologist.This text begins by describing what neuropsychology is, how it is situated within psychology, and for whom it could be a good fit. Suggestions are provided about how to engage in self-assessment in order to help choose a career. It goes on to review over a dozen similar and overlapping careers to illustrate how neuropsychology stands out. Quotes by professional neuropsychologists briTrade Review"We wish this book had been there to share with all those curious minds that we have taught who wondered about the brain. This book is a necessary companion for both students interested in psychology's fastest-growing and most exciting specialty, clinical neuropsychology, and all of us that want to provide direction and wisdom about the wonders of the brain and the many opportunities for careers that accompany a vocation dedicated to the brain and those afflicted with brain disease."Antonio E.

Puente, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Neurology, George Washington University"Drs. Schaefer and Bertisch have filled a void in American education by targeting an intriguing STEM career in clinical neuropsychology as an aspirational goal for high school and for undergraduate college students. The authors have performed a masterful job in providing a detailed and systematic pathway to eventual success in this pursuit at a stage in student’s educational development often devoid of specific guidance. This book not only will be invaluable to students and to their families, it will have the extended benefit of opening a pipeline for qualified professionals to treat the many health and behavioral problems confronting our society across the lifespan from childhood through advanced age."Allan Yozawitz, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, Board Certified in Clinical Neuropsychology, Fellow, American Psychological Association "Schaefer & Bertisch have created an accessible and illuminating guide!

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAn At-Home Guide to Children's Sensory and Behavioral Problems gives a new perspective on sensory and behavior problems, one that sees those behaviors as stemming from a child's immature sensory nervous system and regulation difficulties.This book offers an effective at-home intervention, the Qigong Sensory Treatment, that enlists a parent''s attuned touch to address often overlooked sensory issues that underlie problem' behaviors and works to organize those sensory experiences to foster connection and the capacity for self-regulation. It introduces the reader to a new and clinically useful model to understand sensory development, the Early Childhood Self-regulatory Milestones which are critical to the emotional and behavioral health and regulation for all children. With clear step-by-step instructions, diagrams, and links to online instructional videos, it teaches parents how to successfully implement the daily QST hands-on routine. Unique to the treatment moTrade Review"An At-Home Guide to Children’s Sensory and Behavioral Problems is so much more than a wonderful introduction to the Qigong method of soothing children with sensory challenges. Garofallou and Silva have written a remarkable book about the remarkable power of touch for physical, emotional, cognitive, social and prosocial development. All parents – indeed, all of us – will benefit from reading this tour de force."Stuart Shanker, D.Phil, distinguished research professor emeritus of philosophy and psychology, founder of the MEHRIT Centre, Ltd., and Self-Reg Global Inc. "Touch, sensory processing and self-regulation are central to every child’s development. This book is bursting with richly detailed, yet clear and simple explanations of how these three key neurosensory domains work. It shows parents and clinicians how they can use touch to help children whose behavior says they need help to process their sensory experiences and regulate themselves. Parents and clinicians will also find here a similar approach - to give themselves the support they need to support their children’s growth and healing." Joshua Sparrow, MD, Brazelton Touchpoints Center, Boston Children’s Hospital/Harvard Medical School. "An At-Home Guide to Children’s Sensory and Behavioral Problems weds Eastern and Western traditions of soma and psyche into a seamless hands-on book to promote the optimal development of self-regulation in children through sensory co-regulation and emotionally attuned parenting. Illuminating and practical, this conceptually sound and functional book is a must have for parents and professionals alike." Gilbert M. Foley, Ed.D., IMH-E, co-author, Linking Sensory Integration and Mental Health: Nurturing Self-Regulation in Infants and Young Children and Mental Health in Early Intervention. "As a developmental behavioral pediatrician with over 25 years caring for families who have children with autism spectrum disorders, I am very excited to recommend Qigong Sensory Treatment for Parents & Clinicians: An At-Home Guide to Children’s Sensory and Behavioral Problems. This approach to therapeutic touch offers a new (and very ancient!) way to help children regulate not only their sensory systems; QST can have a real impact on the childrens’ emotional, physical, and behavioral self-regulation issues including sleep problems, tantrums, stomach upsets and even aggression. The book is nicely organized with many detailed helpful and practical suggestions for making QST soothing and enjoyable for the children.

    Book SynopsisThis practical text supports occupational therapy students and educators as they navigate the opportunities and challenges of practice learning. Reflecting contemporary and innovative occupation-centred practice, it sets out a step-by-step guide to using this knowledge across a range of settings. The clear structure, templates, examples and strategies it presents demonstrate how contemporary theory can be used to inform and guide practice.Implementing Occupation-centred Practice is an essential resource for occupational therapy students during their placement preparation and throughout their placement. It also serves as a tool for practice educators who are looking for assistance in structuring learning for their students.Trade Review"Health care is finally focusing on health which creates a major opportunity for occupational therapists who focus on occupational performance or (doing), which we know enables participation (engagement), and we know participation contributes to well-being (health and quality of life). Occupational therapists do these things because of their special skill set and occupational lens. This book will support educators and challenge students to understand their unique and powerful role in enabling occupational performance." Carolyn Baum, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, USA"For students, this book is a self-guided resource that helps them transfer their knowledge to various practice settings. The guide reminds students that regardless of where they practice, two things constantly influence their interactions with clients: occupation-centered theories and the occupational therapy process. Therefore, the book provides a review of theories centered on occupation and a trove of guided activities for each step of the Occupational Therapy Intervention Process Model (OTIPM). While some students and practice educators may be unfamiliar with the OTIPM specifically, they will be familiar with the process it follows through the stages of occupational therapy assessment, goal setting, intervention and reassessment. The OTIPM lays out the steps of the reasoning and practice process shared by occupational therapists across settings. Therefore, students and educators who may not use the OTIPM per se will still benefit from the book’s structure and the self-guided activities that Dr. Dancza has created for each stage of the occupational therapy process." Barbara Hooper, Colorado State University, USA"Throughout the book, well-researched advice is given to students and educators on how best to proceed during placement, and the authors maintain an emphasis on staying occupation-focused during assessment, treatment, and re-evaluation. This is a practical resource that may become required reading for some placement programs."- Satya Olivier, OTA & PTATable of ContentsPART I: Foundations of occupation-centred practice 1 GUIDE TO THE BOOK 2 OCCUPATION-CENTRED PRACTICE AND REASONING 3 OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY THEORIES AND THE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PROCESS 4 KEY TOOLS OF THE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST: OCCUPATIONAL PROFILING, ACTIVITY ANALYSIS AND OCCUPATIONAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS PART II : Step-by-step guide to the occupational therapy process 5 PREPARING FOR PLACEMENT 6 ESTABLISHING THE CLIENT-CENTRED PERFORMANCE CONTEXT 7 IDENTIFYING CLIENT’S REPORTED AND PRIORITIZED STRENGTHS AND PROBLEMS OF OCCUPATIONAL PERFORMANCE 8 OBSERVING CLIENT’S PERFORMANCE OF PRIORITISED TASKS AND IMPLEMENTING PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS 9 DEFINING AND DESCRIBING TASK ACTIONS THE CLIENT DOES AND DOES NOT PERFORM EFFECTIVELY (DOCUMENTATION) 10 ESTABLISHING, FINALISING OR REDEFINING CLIENT-CENTRED AND OCCUPATION-FOCUSED GOALS 11 CLARIFYING OR INTERPRETING THE REASON(S) FOR CLIENT’S PROBLEMS OF OCCUPATIONAL PERFORMANCE 12 INTERVENTION PHASE 13 RE-EVALUATION FOR ENHANCED AND SATISFYING OCCUPATIONAL PERFORMANCE PART III: Advice for educators and case studies 14 EDUCATION PRINCIPLES FOR LEARNING 15 CASE STUDIES IN PLACEMENT SETTINGS WITHOUT AN ESTABLISHED OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ROLE (ROLE-EMERGING) 16 CASE STUDIES IN ROLE-ESTABLISHED PLACEMENT SETTINGS

Family members from all different viewpoints tell their story and how the brain injury of a loved one has affected them.This book provides a space for those hidden and marginalised voices, the people who are in for the long haul, often dismissed by services and left to cope in isolation. By combining expert commentary with real life experiences, this book points towards sources of support, normalises the experience and provides a context for understanding the grief and losses of family members. Not only will the hard-earnt knowledge and wisdom evident in this book help educate health and social care staff, it hTrade Review"Stop for a moment and think about the person you love most.

    Book SynopsisProsthetics and Patient Management: A Comprehensive Clinical Approach is an innovative text covering both upper and lower extremity prosthetics. All the information clinicians need to manage a range of patients with amputations and their disorders is available in this practical and all-inclusive text. Kevin Carroll and Joan E. Edelstein, together with internationally recognized leaders, present a multidisciplinary team approach to the care of a patient with an amputation. Prosthetics and Patient Management covers practical solutions to everyday problems that clinicians encounter, from early prosthetic management to issues facing the more advanced user. The text is divided into four sections encompassing the range of subjects that confront practitioners including Early Management; Rehabilitation of Patients with Lower Limb Amputation; Rehabilitation of Patients with Upper Limb Amputations; and Beyond the Basics, which includes special considerations for children and futuristic concepts. Prosthetics and Patient Management will provide expert guidance for dealing with a wide array of patients and is a must-have for clinicians and students in physical therapy, certified prosthetists, and orthopedists interested in the wide-ranging field of prosthetics and amputations. Trade Review"This book fulfils its aim of providing a comprehensive approach to prosthetics and patient management…..It is well laid out and progresses logically….. This would be useful in a physiotherapy department where patients are treated following amputation." — Penny Broomhead, Physiotherapy “I feel one of the most helpful aspects of this book was the Appendix. In this section, the authors included a physical therapy intake form, pain questionnaire and physical therapy evaluation form. I found these to be a good starting point for any therapist with little experience evaluating and treating this patient population.” — Kristen Kwiatkowski-Digwood, ADVANCE for Physical Therapists & PT Assistants “If there is a display of publications related to rehabilitation, you will be drawn by the montage cover to the new Carroll/Edelstein book. With photographs of five patients (three of them children) you probably will order it on the spot. . . Excellent photographs as well as references." — Jay Schleichkorn, PhD, PT, Dr. Jay’s E-Book Reports "The illustrations help to clarify descriptions of devices in the book….This is a good addition to a collection for those interested in amputee management and care. It is easy to read and easy to understand – well written overall." — Rachna H.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisGlobal Perspectives in Professional Reasoning is the first text of its kind to address the broader scope of occupational therapy practice and the different types of professional reasoning that can be employed, including strategic, political, nonlinear, creative, and social reasoning. This text encompasses a wide range of thinking skills and cognitive processes used by occupational therapists, from reflecting on practice to solving problems, and from reasoning in the clinic to reasoning in the wider political, social, and cultural worlds.Marilyn B. Cole and Jennifer Creek and their contributors are therapists, educators, and scholars who have explored new areas of professional practice and written about the thought processes that reinforced their actions. The authors come from around the world, providing a global perspective while also demonstrating that occupational therapists within different cultures serve remarkably similar human needs: to be included in their communities, to have occupational choices, and to determine their own life course.Many of the contributors in Global Perspectives in Professional Reasoning have identified and analyzed their own thought processes as they tackled complex and challenging tasks, often in unfamiliar contexts. These challenging tasks have produced several entirely original conceptualizations of professional reasoning, such as development and spiritual reasoning. The contributors start by observing what is going on, try to make sense of the situation, and then work out what to do. Other contributors are fascinated by a theory, a policy, or an approach; study it; and then look for ways to utilize it in practice. Most of the time, contributors focus their attention on the process of reasoning rather than on the specific types of reasoning they are employing or on desired outcomes.Inside Global Perspectives in Professional Reasoning, each chapter charts the learning process that contributors went through as they extended their thinking skills and processes to meet the challenges they encountered. All the chapters describe reasoning in practice and all of them utilize theory.A broad and fresh take on professional reasoning in occupational therapy practice, Global Perspectives in Professional Reasoning is the perfect resource for occupational therapy students and clinicians who want to utilize reasoning to tackle the most complex and challenging of tasks.Table of ContentsAbout the Editors Contributing Authors Preface Foreword by Kit Sinclair, PhD Chapter 1 Introduction to the BookJennifer Creek, PhD and Marilyn B.

    Book SynopsisInterprofessional Evidence-Based Practice: A Workbook for Health Professionals promotes active, team learning of interprofessional evidence-based practice (EBP). This book is distinctive in that it departs from the tradition of evidence-based practice occurring from a single disciplinary perspective. Interprofessional evidence-based practice is described in terms of a dynamic team process that blends the patient’s preferences and values, the expertise of practitioners from multiple disciplines, and incorporates multidisciplinary evidence. Teams learn to use the nine phases in the interprofessional process to challenge current disciplinary paradigms and biases to create an integrated approach to patient care, healthcare delivery, or population health.Drs. Penelope Moyers and Patricia Finch Guthrie focus on developing and fostering collaboration between academic institutions and healthcare organizations so that students and faculty participate on interprofessional teams with mentors and staff from a healthcare organization. Interprofessional Evidence-Based Practice: A Workbook for Health Professionals also addresses the communication and cross-organizational factors important for supporting the work of the team. Common team and mentoring issues encountered in EBP are clearly articulated, along with the iterative problem-solving approaches necessary to mitigate temporary “stumbling blocks.”The book provides detail for developing and launching an Interprofessional Evidence-Based Practice program that goes beyond the evidence process to include implementation science to support practice change. Approaches for developing partnerships for supporting this type of program between universities and health care institutions are contained within, including sample partnership agreements and resource-sharing strategies.Inside Interprofessional Evidence-Based Practice: A Workbook for Health Professionals, each chapter includes performance objectives, key words, checklists, and materials and resources that an interprofessional team can use. PowerPoint lectures, mentor newsletters, forms, tools, and other resources are included on a companion website to guide team learning about key EBP topics, as well as to support the program coordinators and team mentors in their work with the interprofessional teams.Interprofessional Evidence-Based Practice: A Workbook for Health Professionals is the go-to resource for those who want to engage in interprofessional evidence-based practice, and for leaders who want to develop and implement an interprofessional evidence-based practice program.Trade Review“This is a remarkable resource for interprofessional, evidence-based practice with both theoretical and practical resources. The significance of training health professionals to engage in interprofessional collaboration cannot be overlooked in this changing healthcare arena.” - Yolanda Griffiths, OTD, OTR/L, FAOTA, College of Saint Mary, Doody’s Review ServiceTable of ContentsDedicationAcknowledgmentsAbout the AuthorsContributing AuthorsForeword by Mary Fran Tracy, PhD, RN, APRN, CNS, FAANIntroduction Section I Preparation for an Interprofessional Evidence-Based Practice Program Chapter 1 Getting StartedPenelope A.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisFieldwork education links education and practice and is a critical extension of occupational therapy curricula. Yet, despite its importance, the theory and practice of fieldwork education has remained relatively free of research, theory, development, or training for those who direct the learning of students. The chapters in this essential book, each of which offers several learning exercises, address these gaps in the occupational therapy knowledge base, providing a theoretical, and philosophical framework, correcting myths, and forging a connection between the theory and practice of clinical education and supervision. For OT and OTA students, this book will encourage an active learning experience. For new practitioners, the book will help identify a body of knowledge not learned in school. For fieldwork educators, this book will assist with self-assessment and encourage creating a professional development plan that will further refine supervision skills. For managers of practice settings, the book will provide a theoretical base for the administrative, supportive, and educational functions of clinical supervision.
