Activity is more than just doing something.
The ability to understand how an activity impacts the patient's function while also being sensitive to the patient's unique cultural and psychological make-up is important. This book will help you understand the therapeutic aspects of activity in greater detail. It also provides you with many specific activities to use with patients. The content of this book is organized as a sequential, experiential learning process that includes structural assignments for interviews, personal reflections, and group discussions. Chapters apply prior learning to specific activities, including games, sports, crafts, the arts and careers.
