Previously published as two separate books for Speech and Language Therapists and for Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and Rehabilitation Nursing, this book has now been updated and expanded and combines the two first editions into one. This fits in with the increased amount of team working in rehabilitation, both in hospital and community settings. The book assists with the practical implementation of gathering outcome data on patient/clients receiving treatment. Over the last decade there has been a growing awareness of the importance of being able to gather information that could assist in identifying specific gains related to treatment programmes. This should not only help to identify areas for resource change, but also enable health care professionals to monitor the effectiveness of their treatments with individual clients.
This book addresses the critical need for standardized and effective outcome measures in rehabilitation professions. Pamela M. Enderby, a recognized expert, has compiled and updated essential data collection tools for healthcare professionals. The book integrates previous works for speech and language therapists with those for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and rehabilitation nurses, reflecting the growing trend of interdisciplinary team working. It provides practical guidance on gathering outcome data, emphasizing its importance in identifying treatment gains, informing resource allocation, and monitoring therapeutic effectiveness for individual clients.
This updated and expanded edition combines previous works, catering to the increasing emphasis on team working within rehabilitation. The book's focus on practical implementation of outcome data collection is designed to assist healthcare professionals in demonstrating treatment effectiveness and informing resource management. The content is structured to support both individual client monitoring and broader service evaluation within hospital and community settings.
