DESCRIPTION
Covering the assessment and treatment of adult
patients with physical dysfunction, this highly
regarded text helps occupational therapy students
develop the skills and knowledge they need to
become reflective practitioners. The authors
introduce the Occupation Functional Model (OFM)
in the first section, setting the stage for subsequent
discussions that guide students from initial
evaluation to treatment to follow-up.
This updated Seventh Edition includes updated
research, new activity analysis case examples that
clarify links to the OT framework, new photos, new
online videos, and a streamlined organization, which
includes three bonus chapters posted online.
