occupational therapists (and those new to the field of stroke
management) through the complexities of treating people following
stroke. It encourages and assists therapists to use their skills in
problem solving, building on techniques taught and observed as an
undergraduate.
Written and edited by practising occupational therapists, the
book acknowledges the variety of techniques that may be used in
stroke management and the scope of the occupational therapist's
role. Chapters span such key topics as early intervention and the
theoretical underpinnings of stroke care, as well as the management
of motor, sensory, cognitive and perceptual deficits. They are
written in a user-friendly style and presented in a form that
enables the therapist to review the subject prior to assessment and
treatment planning. Complex problems are grouped together for
greater clarity.
This second edition has been fully revised and updated in line
with the WHO ICF model, National Clinical Guidelines and
Occupational Therapy standards. It is produced on behalf of the
College of Occupational Therapists Specialist Section -
Neurological Practice.
