Functional cognition describes the ability to participate in
everyday activities, combining the constructs of function and
cognition. Substantial literature now exists to support assessment
and intervention methods for functional-cognitive deficits, and
policymakers are increasingly requiring improved methods to track
functional cognition and address it across health changes. This is
the first comprehensive text to focus on methods to assess and
develop interventions for people with functional-cognitive
impairments. Numerous videos, practical how-to information,
theoretical bases, OTPF-3 alignment, and current evidence guide
students and clinicians in integrating assessment information into
the context of clinical care. Readers can immediately apply what
they learn to those with whom they work. Highlights Include-
Section I. Foundations. 2 chapters provide context to define
functional cognition and outline occupational therapy's specific
role in working with people with cognitive loss, including current
policy considerations related to implementing strategies and
reimbursement. Section II. Assessment. 14 chapters cover the
principles of functional-cognitive assessment; describe
performance-based ADL and IADL assessment tools in detail,
including development, components, administration, scoring, and
interpretation; and discuss how to use assessment information to
develop a treatment plan. Section III. Intervention. 5 chapters
discuss learning and transfer and how to select an intervention
framework most appropriate for clients based on their assessment
results. Several approaches are presented, each with background,
components, treatment planning, and video demonstrations for use in
practice. The section is followed by an appendix with case examples
that guide readers in administering and interpreting assessments,
selecting an intervention approach, developing a treatment plan,
administering the treatment, and tracking progress and outcomes.
