This book has been produced on behalf of the National Association
of Neurological Occupational Therapists (UK) and is intended to
guide newly-qualified occupational therapists (and those new to the
field of stroke) through the complexities of treating people
following stroke. Writen and edited by practising occupational
therapists, the book acknowledges the many different techniques
that may be used in stroke management and the scope of the
occupational therapy role in the UK.
This book will provide occupational therapists with the foundations for effective occupational therapy in stroke rehabilitation.Written in a user-friendly style, the book's chapters are presented in a form that enables the therapist to review the subject prior to assessment and treatment planning. Complex problems are grouped together to avoid confusion.
This book encourages therapists to use their skills in observation and problem solving, adapting and building on the techniques seen on clinical placement and taught in college.
