摘要

Seating and mobility is a challenging, yet integral field that profoundly contributes to clients' independence and overall well-being. Lange and Minkel's (2018) Seating and Wheeled Mobility: A Clinical Resource Guide, provides an in-depth view into the critical field of seating and wheeled mobility. Authors use a client-centered approach and place an emphasis on maximizing functional mobility for individuals with disabilities. This text is a resource for occupational and physical therapy practitioners, complex rehabilitation technology suppliers, and third-party payers, to help them navigate through the vital, and sometimes daunting, process of seating and mobility assessments and applications. This text provides readers with an unmatched knowledge based on this subject, as it was formed from the expertise of two editors and 29 contributing authors; all of whom are leaders in their respective fields. Each chapter is well crafted by experts who accumulated evidence that thoroughly support the seating and wheeled mobility best practices described.
