Résumé

While diagnosis with a neurological condition may not be life-threatening, it can have significant impact on everyday life and on participation in activities. Occupational therapists must be able to fully consider the physical, cognitive, emotional, psychological and behavioural problems which may occur as a consequence of a neurological disorder as well as understand the impact of diagnosis from a person-centred perspective.
Occupational Therapy and Neurological Conditions incorporates theoretical, clinical and research evidence to support occupational therapists in the management of people with neurological conditions. Occupational Therapy and Neurological Conditions is the ideal resource to support students, newly qualified practitioners and occupational therapists looking for an overview or introduction to this key area of practice.
