Excellent Free Resource: Spinal Cord Injury Patient-Family Teaching Manual

Posted by: Christopher Fisher, PhD Posted date: August 23, 2009 In: Resources, Traumatic Injury | comment : 1

As mentioned in a previous post, I am on internship at a nationally ranked rehabilitation hospital. Though I am currently assigned to a traumatic brain injury rotation (TBI), I have already started to work with patients with spinal cord injuries (i.e., my next formal rotation). I recently came across a wonderful free resource for patients and their family entitled, “Spinal Cord Injury Patient-Family Teaching Manual.” Check the end of this report for a link to download this valuable free resource.

The Spinal Cord Injury Patient-Family Teaching Manual addresses important physical, psychological, and social factors relevant to persons who suffer a spinal cord injury. Topics include sexuality, nutrition, voiding, activities of daily living, and travel and transportation. The manual spans around 500 pages. Thankfully, the authors have divided this extensive evidence-based work into separate, downloadable PDF chapters.

Download Spinal Cord Injury Patient-Family Teaching Manual here.

Enjoy.

This is a popular post at BMED Report, and I just realized that the publisher changed the URL to this free resource. My sincerest apologies to those that had difficulty finding this title. The link has been updated and can now be easily downloaded!
