Package of interventions for rehabilitation. Module 2. Musculoskeletal conditions


Book Description

The Package of Interventions for Rehabilitation (PIR) is a resource that provides relevant information on essential interventions for rehabilitation and related resources (material, human and time) required for the delivery of the interventions. The PIR is available for 20 health conditions amenable to rehabilitation that are organized in seven disease area-specific modules (musculoskeletal conditions, neurological conditions, cardiopulmonary conditions, neurodevelopmental conditions, sensory impairments, cancer, and mental health). The interventions included in the PIR are relevant to Universal Health Coverage. The PIR provides countries with information relevant for the planning, budgeting, and implementation of rehabilitation in their health systems. While Ministries of Health are the main target audience, the information available with the PIR is also useful for service planners and providers, researchers, and academics.






















Rehabilitation in health financing


Book Description

Health financing is a core pillar of health systems and encompasses the three functions of how revenues for health are collected, pooled and paid out to providers of health care services. It can be leveraged to pursue key universal health coverage goals of enhancing access, ensuring quality and financial protection against catastrophic or impoverishing out-of-pocket expenditure. But knowledge on how health financing practices can be harnessed to promote the delivery of rehabilitation services is limited. This document is the first WHO resource on health financing for rehabilitation. It considers current practices for financing rehabilitation services, frames major challenges and opportunities, and offers guidance to decision-makers engaged in strengthening rehabilitation within health systems.




Compassion Focused Therapy


Book Description

Compassion Focused Therapy: Clinical Practice and Applications offers evidence-based guidance and extensive insight into the science behind compassion focused therapy. The first section of the book explores the evolution and physiological infrastructures of caring, and how compassion arises when humans use their complex cognitive competencies to address suffering deliberately and intentionally. With this framework and basis, the next sections of the book explore CFT applied to groups, specific interventions such as chair work, the importance of applying the principles of the therapy to oneself, the CFT therapeutic relationship, and a chapter offering a systematic review of the evidence for CFT. The third section offers a series of multi-authored chapters on interventions for a range of different mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and many others. Being the first major clinical book on compassion focused therapy, with leading international researchers and clinicians addressing central problems, this landmark publication will appeal to psychotherapists from a variety of schools as well as being a vital resource for compassion focused therapists.
