This book is written primarily for occupational therapists and
occupational therapy students but will be of relevance to anyone
working with clients with rheumatoid disease. It is hoped that the
text will communicate the challenge faced by therapists to
establish management programmes appropriate to the identified needs
and priorities of the individuals with whom they work, the
potential to utilize a wide range of skills and the opportunity to
contribute to the understanding of the many unanswered questions
which remain in relation to rheumatic diseases. The aim of this
book is to present an holistic approach to the management of
rheumatoid disease, considering first, the ways in which rheumatoid
disease can affect a person's life and then looking at the
approaches and techniques used by therapists to minimize these
effects. This approach has been chosen as it is fundamental to both
the philosophical basis of occupational therapy and the manage ment
of a chronic progressive disease. An holistic approach considers
the physical, psychological, social and spiritual aspects of a
person and the ways in which these have been effected by an
underlying disease process. Each of the components are
interrelated, illustrating the complexity of establishing
appropriate management programmes and evaluating their
effectiveness. The first two chapters consider the effects of
rheumatoid disease on clients and their families. An holistic
approach identifies the need for a diversity of skills to be
available to both the therapist and client.
