Using a practical, 'nuts and bolts' approach to school-based occupational therapy services, this unique text guides both entry level and experienced practitioners through the evaluation, intervention, and dismissal process in an educational setting.

Beginning with an overview of the purpose of school-based interventions, the authors map out current populations, programs, and legal and licensing standards to give school-based practitioners the knowledge to practice safely and ethically. The book then explores how to successfully navigate the referral process from eligibility to intervention, incorporating helpful tips and references to help establish patterns of best practice. It also features numerous examples of current and reliable evaluations so that practitioners can expand their repertoire of assessments while ensuring a holistic avenue of care to reflect the distinct value of occupational therapy.

Written by authors with a wealth of experience in this field, the book will be essential reading for both new and more experienced occupational therapy practitioners, as well as students training towards working in a school-based context.

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.
