Recreational Therapy for Speci by Heather Porter

Recreational Therapy for Specific Diagnoses and Conditions offers detailed descriptions of 39 diagnoses and conditions that are treated by recreational therapists. Each diagnosis chapter has a description of the diagnosis or condition, including the incidence or prevalence and the ages most affected. This is followed by the causes of the condition; social, emotional, and bodily systems affected; secondary problems that may be found; and information about the patient's prognosis. The next section of the chapter is devoted to the assessment process for the whole treatment team and, in more detail, what the recreational therapist must do to assess the status of the patient. Specific assessment tools and connections to the categories of the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health are provided.

Heather Porter was born and educated in London and Kent. She is a mother of four boys, ages four to fourteen, and stepmother to two girls. In addition to managing a bustling family, she is extremely dedicated to her charity work spanning the globe including her own foundation, which provides for children with disabilities.
