Evidence-Based Assessment Framework for Assistive Technology
The primary focus of this book is to educate the reader on the Matching Person and Technology (MPT) model and assessment process that will guide the reader on consumer-centered assistive technology assessment and outcome measures designed to be used for individuals of all ages and all types of disabilities. The first section of the book introduces the MPT and Matching Assistive Technology and CHild (MATCH) assessment process and discusses key documents that align with the assessments including the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health and the Occupational Therapy Framework III.

Dogs in Health Care
Dogs have a storied history in health care, and the human-animal relationship has been used in the field for decades. Certain dogs have improved and advanced the field of health care in myriad ways. This book presents the stories of these pioneer dogs, from the mercy dogs of World War I, to the medicine-toting sled dogs Togo and Balto, to today's therapy dogs. More than the dogs themselves, this book is about the human-animal relationship, and moments in history where that relationship propelled health care forward.

It will present these concepts through a mix of basic and applied knowledge from rehabilitation engineering research and practice. It's written as an introductory text in order to provide access to the field by those without previous experience or background in the field.These concepts will include those related to engineering and health that are necessary to understand the application of rehabilitation engineering to support human function.
Matching Assistive Technology to Child-Augmentative Communication Evaluation Simplified Assessment Process
The MATCH-ACES assessment is an evidence-based and student-centered evaluation process used to determine the need and appropriate match of assistive technology for students in the educational setting. This assessment process can also be adapted into the medical/health-care setting. The MATCH-ACES assessment contains evaluation forms that aide the assistive technology evaluator/team through a process of identifying the student's needs based on their educational plan, predisposition factors that support technology use, student's skills matched to technology features, environmental factors, consideration process, and implementation and follow-up plan. The MATCH-ACES Assessment User Manual includes psychometric properties of the assessment, administration procedures, interpretation guidelines of the assessment, and case-study examples. The MATCH-ACES Assessment forms are included on a USB drive with unlimited copies for the buyer.
The Kawa Model
A landmark publication in occupational therapy and a significant contribution to the rehabilitation theory literature! The Kawa Model presents a new conceptual model of practice that differs from contemporary theories in regard to: origin (East Asia), underlying philosophical base (East Asia), being heavily infused with a natural-ecological, holistic world view, and relational structure. The model is based on the metaphor of nature (a river) that stands for the meanings of life. Because of the familiarity of the metaphor, to both therapists and clients alike, the Kawa Model is relatively easy to comprehend, remarkably simple, yet comprehensive and effective. Unlike other models, it was raise...

Assistive Technology Assessment Handbook
Assistive Technology Assessment Handbook, Second Edition, proposes an international ideal model for the assistive technology assessment process, outlining how this model can be applied in practice to re-conceptualize the phases of an assistive technology delivery system according to the biopsychosocial model of disability. The model provides reference guidelines for evidence-based practice, guiding both public and private centers that wish to compare, evaluate, and improve their ability to match a person with the correct technology model. This second edition also offers a contribution to the Global Cooperation on Assistive Technology (GATE) initiative, whose activities are strongly focused o...
