Descripción

Better patient management starts with better documentation! Documentation for Rehabilitation, 4th Edition demonstrates how to accurately document treatment progress and patient outcomes using a framework for clinical reasoning based on the International Classification for Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model adopted by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). The documentation guidelines in this practical resource are easily adaptable to different practice settings and patient populations in physical therapy and physical therapy assisting. Realistic examples and practice exercises reinforce the understanding and application of concepts, improving skills in both documentation and clinical reasoning.
