Achieve the best functional outcomes for your patients. Here is a practical, step-by-step guide to understanding the treatment process and selecting the most appropriate interventions for your patients. Superbly illustrated, in-depth coverage shows you how to identify functional deficits, determine what treatments are appropriate, and then implement them to achieve the best functional outcome for your patients. Learn through reading, seeing, and doing. Seventeen case studies in the text correspond to seventeen videotaped case studies with voice-over narration online at FADavis.com. These videos show you how practicing therapists interact with their clients in rehabilitation settings…from sample elements of the initial examination through the interventions to the functional outcomes…to make a difference in patients’ lives.

"Major updates to the textbook and multimedia resources provide the reader with an engaging environment to improve clinical decision-making and clinical skill application. These resources are designed to present an integrated model of therapeutic intervention applicable to a wide spectrum of adult patients engaged in physical rehabilitation"--

A book for the physical therapy student which will train students on how to achieve functional outcomes in patients through neurorehabilitation. Focuses on patients with significant impairments and functional limitations requiring active rehabilitation (for example, stroke, spinal cord injury, etc.) and on presenting information on skills necessary for the patient to function independently in daily life (i.e. transfer skills, wheelchair skills, balance skills). The text progresses from determining appropriate treatment to how to implement treatment to desired result for improved patient quality of life.

"... this manual does an excellent job of merging traditional and contemporary principles of neurotherapeutic intervention, all with a practical, functional orientation." -- Physical Therapy Care Reports, Vol. 2, No. 1, January 1999 Here's an integrated physical therapy model applicable to a variety of clinical problems and diagnoses. After exploring the application of treatment techniques, the authors focus on clinical decision-making strategies using clinical problems and progressively comprehensive case studies. "This text offers a wonderful source of ideas for developing laboratory experiences that will be directly applicable to clinical situations that our students will face in their future practice." -- Mark W. Pape, MSPT, Angelo State University, San Angelo, Texas
