I found this book surprisingly full of helpful info., and organized quite well. I have been able to use this book to review many things that I had gotten "rusty" on, in a concise, easy to follow, easy to find category index, with many useful & objective tests which make evals much easier, as well as creating a more quantitative set of data collecting. In the home health setting, we professionals are "on our own" per say, as there are usually no other references or personnel available in the home setting. I've really used this book a LOT since purchasing it, and found it to be an excellent resource! I purchased this book based on the tool of being able to look inside the book before purchase-great tool! It sold me!!
Item arrived on time. No issues with the seller however I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. It's not informative at all nor does it relate to home health in any respect. The core contents of this book can be summed up in a 99 cent app. Too wordy and leaves the reader frustrated to say the least. Do not purchase this book.
Very informative and meets my needs a lot since I am going back into the Homecare field. Wonderful book. I would recommend it to anyone.
Great for providing information on all types of rehab assessment tools, ethics, and quick emergency assessments and protocols. For a PT preparing to transition into home health, I have found this book helpful in understanding the focus of home health vs. my typical clinical practice. I also liked the section on questions for asking when interviewing for a position. I know this book can't include everything, but I would have appreciated some additional information and suggestions on practical matters such as basic home adaptation, handouts for caregivers (such as transfer training, positioning, etc.) and advice for working through the lengthy initial assessment tool for new patients.
I'm a home health OT, new to home health. This book is a life saver with plenty of information, assessments, and almost everything you would need to know for home health. Granted, it's a little out of date with all of the new medicare guidelines, but most of the information is still very useful. I have no regrets and wish I had bought the book when I first started home health.
I received "Home Rehabilitation: Guide to Clinical Practice" By Anemaet & Moffa-Trotter 2000 and LOVE it!I think it is especially good for those new to home care.It has sections on setting schedules, equipment, infection control, safety, regulations, medications, ethics, and pediatric and adult conditions. There is an extensive listing of evaluations, which are described in usable detail.Common medications are listed by both generic and brand names, making them easy to track down, and side-effects are also listed.I think it is a great reference!
