Previously published as two separate books for Speech and Language Therapists and for Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and Rehabilitation Nursing, this book has now been updated and expanded and combines the two first editions into one. This fits in with the increased amount of team working in rehabilitation, both in hospital and community settings. The book is intended to assist with the practical implementation of gathering outcome data on patient/clients receiving treatment.
This edition combines the scales for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, hearing therapists and rehabilitation nurses. This will facilitate team working and communication. It is compatible with the International Classification of Functioning (ICF), and International Statistical Classification of Disease and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision (ICD10). The Therapy Outcome Measure (TOM) allows therapists to describe the relative abilities and difficulties of a patient/client in the four domains of impairment, activity, participation and well-being in order to monitor changes over time. This approach has been rigorously tested for reliability and clinical validity. It is quick and simple to use, taking just a few minutes to complete and has been used for treatment planning, clinical management, audit and research. It allows for the aggregation of data so that comparisons can be made for the purposes of internal and external benchmarking. The book also includes training materials.
