This practical volume, in a casebook approach, was developed in response to the complex issues that today’s manager faces. As therapists assume managerial responsibilities, there is need to share experiences and lessons learned. In this volume, a common format is used to present each case, including chronology of events, alternatives considered, risks involved, and outcomes. Several chapters include valuable resource materials as well. Key concerns are addressed, such as justifying more therapist staff, evaluating staff performance, collecting and analyzing cost data to establish fees, weighing ethical and liability concerns, and teaching students about their future responsibilities. The Occupational Therapy Manager’s Survival Handbook provides useful material for any therapist who wishes to examine and strengthen his or her role as a manager.
Instrument Development in Occupational Therapy describes an instrument development study that will enhance your understanding of the interview process and contribute to the availability of truly useful clinical interviews. This important book examines content and concurrent validity and development of the Assessment of Occupational Functioning (AOF) and carefully compares the AOF with a similar instrument, the Occupational Case Analysis Interview and Rating Scale (OCAIRS), to discover the similarities and strengths of these instruments. The study yields clear, data-based implications for the AOF second revision and directions for further research. The authors also place this research in the context of other formal interviews, comment on the use of standardized patient evaluations in psychosocial practice, and show the use of the AOF.
