Synopsis:
Contemporary management and intervention models for children with special health care needs and disabilities have evolved to match the rapid changes in pediatric service delivery. Susan Effgen and her team of 23 scholars and clinical experts are the first to address these fundamental shifts in an innovative text designed for entry-level students. Based fundamentally on the premise that all systems play a part in coordinated movement activity, the text departs from the traditional disease or treatment based approach. Moving from deficit-based to ability-based models, it follows the practice patterns set by the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice. This is truly a text that will ensure that future generations of therapists are best prepared to enter and keep pace with the ever-changing world of practice in the 21st century.
