Resources for rehabilitation specialists tend to follow a straight
line: injury - disability - limitation - intervention. "The
International Handbook of Occupational Therapy Interventions"
breaks with this tradition, organized by type of intervention
(based on recommendations in the International Classification of
Functioning) rather than disability, medical condition, or level of
impairment. This innovative, user-friendly system identifies
candidates for particular interventions in terms of the range of
syndromes and illnesses they are applicable to, encouraging
critical thinking, problem solving, and best practice. The book's
wide spectrum of interventions coupled with its international
perspective creates a unique source of evidence-based strategies
for improving patients' adaptation, functioning, relearning,
recovery, and the prevention of ill health. The handbook describes
interventions in such areas as environmental accessibility,
ergonomics, pain management, sensory functional training, electric
prostheses, music therapy, psychoeducation, and cognitive teaching.
It features interventions suited to all areas of daily life: self
maintenance, home, work, and leisure. It clarifies the occupational
therapist's role in multidisciplinary care. It includes material on
accident/illness prevention and health promotion strategies. It
supplies reference lists of studies regarding the clinical efficacy
of interventions. It demonstrates the use of a common technical
language for the field. Occupational and physical therapists,
rehabilitation nurses and technicians, physiatrists, and health
psychologists will find the "International Handbook of Occupational
Therapy Interventions" a source of practice-enhancing tools and
ideas. Its clarity of presentation makes it highly useful to
readers in related fields (such as insurance case workers and
ergonomic architects and engineers) as well.
