Description

Many patients have complex and multiple problems that cross the traditional disciplinary boundaries. Therefore, there is an increasing emphasis on a team approach to rehabilitation in order to care for the total patient and not localized problems. For an efficient team approach, a good understanding and an awareness of the roles of other professionals in rehabilitation and their skill sets are essential. The importance of such knowledge has become even more relevant in the current healthcare system where therapists are playing a larger role in healthcare delivery and management. "Multidisciplinary Approach to Rehabilitation" is the ideal book for students and clinicians who want to expand their understanding of the rehabilitation process in order to set up future working relationships with their peers.
