No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780443061592 Churchill Livingstone

This key text has been written to bridge the gap between the books on the theory of occupational therapy and those which look at the occupational therapy management of specific conditions, i.e., it links the theory to practice. It looks at the 4 core processes which form the basis of the unique practice of OT: assessment and evaluation of individual potential and performance, occupational analysis and adaptation, environmental analysis adaptation and therapeutic use of self. It introduces the student to the scope and purpose of each of these processes and gives practical information about theirapplication in relation to working with adults.

  • A practical guide to the core skills and processes of occupational therapy
    • Outlines the theory but firmly relates it to practice
  • Introduces a process-based client-centred model: Competent Occupational Performance in the Environment (CORE)
    • Reflects the latest thinking in OT including occupational and environmental analysis
  • Highly readable and free of jargon

    Why I Became an Occupational Physician and Other Occupational Health Stories
    <em>"Why I Became an Occupational Physician" and Other Occupational Health Stories</em> brings together an edited collection of the short articles published in the journal <em>Occupational Medicine</em> between 2002 and 2018. The articles originally appeared as 'fillers', commissioned to literally 'fill' the blank spaces at the end of the main scientific papers, but they soon became a feature in their own right. <p/>Written by doctors working in occupational medicine and health, the fillers began as a series of pieces exploring the varied and often surprising reasons why the individuals chose to pursue this unique speciality, whether it was a natural career move, triggered by a specific event, or stumbled upon by chance. Over time the articles became much broader in their scope and the journal began to attract pieces from some brilliant writers: Mike Gibson, John Challenor, Nerys Williams, and of course the superlative Anthony Seaton, amongst many others. <p/>Each article offers something different: a peek into history, a humorous adventure, a quiet musing, or a thought-provoking observation, but all are tied together under the umbrella of occupational medicine, a speciality that is often little known or understood in the wider world of medicine. This book brings together over 15 years' worth of fascinating and diverse articles into one volume for the first time, giving a rare insight into the world of the occupational physician.
