Justifying Rehabilitation Intensity Through Functional Performance Measures in Postacute Care. / Christine Kroll in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 72/1 (January/February 2018)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 72/1 (January/February 2018) . - pp.1-6 Titre : Justifying Rehabilitation Intensity Through Functional Performance Measures in Postacute Care. Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Christine Kroll, Auteur ; Thomas Fisher, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp.1-6 Langues : Américain (ame) Mots-clés : Établissements de soins qualifiés  Rééducation et réadaptation  Organismes de prise en charge à domicile  Soins de suite Résumé : The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has scrutinized the provision of rehabilitation services in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) for some time. Little research guidance exists on appropriate dosage or rehabilitation intensity (RI) among SNF patients or patients in other postacute care (PAC) settings. CMS developed a PAC assessment, the Continuity Assessment Record and Evaluation (CARE) Tool, in response to questions about what issues drive placement in various PAC settings under Medicare. The ability to adequately assess functional outcomes and correlate them to the RI provided by using the CARE Tool is promising. However, further research, policy advocacy, and practice analysis must be undertaken to promote and protect adequate access to occupational therapy and physical therapy in SNFs and other PAC settings. Individual practitioners must participate in data gathering to ensure that the data for analysis are fully informed by the occupational therapy perspective.

Role of Occupational Therapy in Preventing Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders With Recycling Workers: A Pilot Study. / Thomas Fisher in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 71/1 (2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 71/1 (2017) . - pp.1-6 Titre : Role of Occupational Therapy in Preventing Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders With Recycling Workers: A Pilot Study. Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Thomas Fisher, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp.1-6 Langues : Américain (ame) Mots-clés : Réutilisation de matériel  Maladies ostéomusculaires Résumé : Little is known about injury prevention in recycling workers; therefore, in this study, I aimed to identify physical and psychosocial risk factors for employees involved in single-stream recycling and to explore strategies for prevention and wellness. Fifteen participants who were either recycling workers or supervisors located throughout seven locations on an urban university campus participated. A mixed-methods research design was used to obtain data through a variety of standardized work environment and health questionnaires and semistructured interviews. Approximately 80% of participants expressed satisfaction with their jobs; 50% reported having a musculoskeletal injury; and 33% reported a lack of support from coworkers or supervisors, which created stress and anxiety. Additional risk factors included poor body mechanics, equipment issues, poor social interactions, and lack of supervisor knowledge for prevention. Occupational therapy practitioners are well situated to support preventive interventions that address the combined physical and psychosocial needs of recycling workers.
