Download or read book Head Injury written by D. M. A. Gronwall and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether they are caused by traffic accidents, incidents of violence, or occur during sports or leisure activities, as many do, head injuries can dramatically and tragically alter the victim's ability to cope with life. They also present unique problems for caregivers and families of patients. Accompanying personality changes and disorders, lingering effects such as headache and dizziness, and the sheer difficulty in predicting the duration of the healing process and its eventual outcome all combine to create special stresses for those involved. This book offers a clear description of the facts of head injury in terms understandable to patients and their families, as well as health care staff. It explains both physical and psychological effects and how they may best be confronted, and possibly overcome. It takes the reader from hospital emergency room thorough the posthospital experience, detailing the stages of recovery and techniques for charting progress. The book also discusses the ways that head trauma can affect families and friends, and, for patients who have recovered sufficiently, there are suggestions on managing the return to normal living. For those with more serious injuries, a section describes the long-term adjustments that victims and their caregivers will need to make. The final section outlines the requirements of a typical head injury rehabilitation system, and suggests ways for individuals to make sure they have an opportunity to participate. The authors have many years of experience working with head injured people and the organizations that have been formed to help them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each day throughout the world hundreds of people suffer head injuries. Whether they are caused by traffic accidents, or violence, or occur during sports and leisure activities , these injuries can dramatically and tragically alter the victim's ability to cope with life. In many countries,after-care of the victim, once the injury is no longer life-threatening, is often inadequate, and all too often families are left to manage as best as they can. The book is written for families who find themselves in this situation. The authors have had many years of experience working withhead-injured people in both research and rehabilitation roles. The effects of injury are explained in non-technical terms and, where possible, practical ways of overcoming these effects are described. Because they also have many years of experience working with organisations that have been formedto help the families of the head-injured, the authors know the main areas of concern that these families have. Beginning with the injury itself, the stages that the patient will go through are described, and the procedures and techniques that will be used to chart progress are explained. As wellas these direct effects of the injury on the victim, the book also examines the ways that head trauma can affect families and friends. For the person who will eventually recover sufficiently to do so, there are suggestions on managing the return to work or school most effectively. For those whowill never reach this level, there is a section which describes the long-term adjustments that these people and their care-givers need to make. The final section outlines the requirements of a head injury rehabilitation system, and gives some suggestions about the steps that individuals can take toensure that this sort of service is provided in their area. This new edition has been fully updated, to reflect the recent advances in medical science that mean that many more people with head injury survive, and also new trends in health care and rehabilitation.

Download or read book What Psychotherapists Should Know About Disability written by Rhoda Olkin and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2012-04-06 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive volume provides the knowledge and skills that mental health professionals need for more effective, informed work with clients with disabilities. Combining her extensive knowledge as a clinician, researcher, and teacher with her personal experience as someone with a disability, Olkin provides an insider's perspective on critical issues that are often overlooked in training. A lucid conceptual framework is presented for understanding disability as a minority experience, one that is structured by social, legal, and attitudinal constraints as well as physical challenges. Illuminating frequently encountered psychosocial themes and concerns, chapters describe a range of approaches to dealing with disability issues in the treatment of adults, children, and families. Topics addressed include etiquette with clients with disabilities; special concerns in assessment, evaluation, and diagnosis; the impact of disability on sexuality and romance, as well as pregnancy, birthing, and parenting; the use of assistive technology and devices; disability and substance abuse; and more. Filled with clinical examples and observations, the volume also discusses strategies for enhancing teaching, training, and research.
