Many workers (especially in parts of the UK) want to study NVQs and cannot get access to them, so this book will also help them… I like the ‘typical day’ approach as this gives examples and can answer frequently asked questions. It is also easy for the reader to follow. This book appears to get right into the subject from the workplace level and give a variety of styles, i.e. case studies, problem solving, diagrams… I believe this work is extremely important. There is nothing like it out there and there is a real need for it. \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eCatherine Smith, Assistants Officer, The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e'\u003ci\u003eI recommend this book as a companion guide for rehabilitation staff and supervisors. reflective questions and international references make it a must for most physical medicine settings'\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCanadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, October 2007\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eThis book is designed as a companion text for the variety of support workers in the field of rehabilitation. It recognises the diversity of roles and array of training and education options; formal routes such as S\/NVQ and schemes which are tailored to an individual workplace. Therefore the focus of the book is simply to provide an accessible introduction to rehabilitating the patient, no matter what discipline or service leads this activity.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEnabling Independence\u003c\/i\u003e provides practical information by reflecting different approaches to assisting with rehabilitation. The first section introduces the framework for the book and considers the philosophy of enablement. The second section is dedicated to ‘enhancing function’ and details the most common activities of daily living, such as mobility and dressing. This is followed by a ‘problem oriented approach’ in the third section, which addresses typical problems which support workers are likely to encounter, such as patients who fall or experience fatigue. The final section considers issues in delivering the rehabilitation support, such as team working and supporting carers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 1: The tools of enabling independence\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoal Setting.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTeaching for Rehabilitation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 2: Enhancing function\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCase studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMobility and transfers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDressing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWashing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFood preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSelf medication.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSwallowing difficulties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoing out.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 3: Problem based approach\u003c\/b\u003e .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCommunication.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePsychological issues.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFalls.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContinence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMemory loss.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePalliative care.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 4: Issues.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCarer support.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLife-long learning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTeam working\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Nursing%20\u0026amp;%20ancillary%20services%20%5BMQ%5D%22\"\u003eMQ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501370175768,"sku":"9781405130288","price":41.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781405130288.jpg?v=1786234190","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/enabling-independence-a-guide-for-rehabilitation-workers-paperback-softback-9781405130288","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
