N2  - Reflecting current practice with a renewed focus on function-based assessments and evidence-based interventions, this text includes all of the tools you need to make a positive impact on patients' lives. This clinical resource summarizes, highlights, and constructively critiques the state of cognitive and perceptual rehabilitation. It helps to enhance the patients' quality of life by promoting improved performance of necessary and meaningful activities, and decreasing participation restrictions. Evidence-based intervention tables focus on improving daily function through proven methods. Summary tables highlight each assessment's clinical utility and psychometric properties to provide the tools needed to choose the best assessment for each patient. An entire chapter on Application of Concepts features five case studies, each discussing background data and medical record review, evaluation findings, assessments, long-term goals, short-term goals, and interventions and functional activities to assist in the application of the theories and principles from the book to real world situations. Handy learning aids including Key Terms, Learning Objectives, and Review Questions assist in the remembering of important information
