| Summary |
"A variety of cases are presented in Case Studies in Rehabilitation covering a myriad of topics such as orthopedics, neurology, rheumatology, and oncology. These case studies represent the primary adult pathologies, impairments, and functional limitations seen by clinicians. The case studies will also allow the reader to focus on the concept of disability for an individual when developing a comprehensive plan of care. The user-friendly format allows the user to choose from one of the many topics for practice in developing treatment plans, case analysis, or to focus on one area of practice." "An important function of this book is that it allows for the integration of didactic learning and hands-on practice when patients are not readily available. All case studies are presented in a narrative format with accompanying forms that are frequently encountered in clinical practice." "Case Studies in rehabilitation will also help students as they learn to interact with the patients they will be treating in their future careers. This text will allow them to fine-tune their skills in dealing with a variety of different patients and cases, and indicate how to handle each individual case in the best possible manner."--BOOK JACKET |
