Abstract

Occupational Therapy in Acute Care, 2nd Edition, written collaboratively by occupational therapists with acute care and teaching experience, is designed for practitioners working in a hospital setting and others seeking to learn more about this important but often overlooked area of practice. Illustrated chapters offer an understanding of the various body systems, common conditions, diseases, procedures, and typical medical management and how they relate to occupational therapy practice.

This book has been reorganized and updated with evidence-based practice. New for this edition are chapters on the acute care context, services, and disciplines; standardized assessments and G-codes; hospital equipment; trauma; orthotics; physical agent modalities; and creating a positive patient experience.

This edition also features downloadable handouts to be used with patients and videos to enhance practice. To access this content, click on the down arrow in the left menu toolbar.
