Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.79 N°2 (February 2016) . - p.85-91 Titre : Community occupational therapy for people with dementia and their family carers: A national survey of United Kingdom occupational therapy practice Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Tom Swinson ; Jennifer Wenborn ; Stinéad Hynes Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p.85-91 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : dementia  community  occupational therapy Résumé : Introduction A national survey was conducted with United Kingdom (UK) occupational therapists to scope occupational therapy service provision for people with dementia and their family carers in the community. Method This was an online questionnaire with topics on occupational therapists’ roles, service provision, referral, assistive technology and assessment tools. Recruitment was through direct invitation, and promotion via occupational therapy networks, websites and newsletters. Results A total of 197 responded. Occupational therapy referrals most commonly came from the multidisciplinary team. Over half primarily undertook profession-specific work, with occupational therapy assessments the most common profession-specific task. Two-thirds of referrals for initial assessments were for people with mild-to-moderate dementia. A median of 2.5 hours for assessment/intervention was spent for each person with dementia. Almost two-thirds used the Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool. Most could prescribe personal activities of daily living equipment and Telecare, with few able to prescribe equipment for reminiscence or leisure. Conclusion This national survey increases knowledge of UK community occupational therapy practice and service provision for people with dementia and their family carers. It informs occupational therapists about national trends within this practice area, and development of the community occupational therapy intervention (COTiD-UK) as part of the Valuing Active Life in Dementia research programme.

Validating an Irish-language version of the Rivermead Bahavioural Memory Test - Second Edition / Stinéad Hynes in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Volume 77 numéro 4 (Avril 2014)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Volume 77 numéro 4 (Avril 2014) . - p.198 - p.204 Titre : Validating an Irish-language version of the Rivermead Bahavioural Memory Test - Second Edition Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Stinéad Hynes, Auteur ; Agnes SHIEL, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : p.198 - p.204 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : assessment  memory  Irish language  occupational therapy Résumé : Introduction This study translates and assesses the psychometric properties of an Irish-language version of the Rivermaed Behavioural Memory Test - Second Edition (Wilson et al 2003), a screening measure for memory impairment in adults. Method All four versions of the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test - Second Edition were translated to Irish and administered to a sample of 21 participants aged 21- 64 years. Equivalent translation of the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test - Second Edition was achieved through multiple translations and back-translations of the instrument and field-testing with both bilingual and monolingual participants. Findings Strong evidence of concurrent validity was clear frome the results. Test-retest reliability of the measure proved to be low in comparison with the English version. In general, the four parallel versions seem to be of equal difficulty, and the Irish version of the Rivermead Behavioural Memory-Test - Second Edition was no more difficult than the English version. Conclusion The results support an Irish Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test- Second Edition as a valid test of everyday memory. Overall, the reliability of the tool is acceptable, but results must be considered cautiously due to the preliminary nature of the study and given the small sample size.
