What Is Multidisciplinary/Interdisciplinary Intervention

310 Words2 Pages

The literature shows that multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary intervention approach is the best selected intervention for individuals with LBP [40-43]. The effectiveness of the interdisciplinary treatment for LBP is supported by the literature; it significantly relieves pain, improves physical function and mental health, and reinforces the use of self-management skills for individuals with LBP [40-42]. A systematic review shows that interdisciplinary intervention has a greater effect on long, medium, and short term pain and disability compared to the usual care and physical therapy treatment (i.e. “heat and electrotherapeutic modalities; aerobic, stretching, and strengthening exercises; manual therapies; and education interventions”) [44].

It can affect sleep, ability to move around, eating, healing, breathing, mood and relationships (Shega, Tiedt, Grant, & Dale, 2014). Personally when I am in severe pain I really do not want people around and it affects every aspect of my life. To think that persistent pain affects 80% of elderly residents in nursing homes and 50% of community dwellers, and we still do not treat this properly (Veal& Peterson, 2015).

    1) To be assessed: Impact and extent of PD symptoms (motor and non-motor) on Ken’s everyday functioning. Since we are using the CMOP-E as our guiding occupation based theory, we must approach intervention planning in a client-centered way. In order to develop an intervention plan that is specific to Ken, we must get an overall picture of what his physical, cognitive, social, and emotional challenges are so that we can work with him to set realistic and achievable goals. Establishing a baseline of the extent to which his motor and non-motor symptoms of PD are affecting his functioning in everyday life will give us this information.

    In order for Monti to make effective progress and reach potential outcomes selecting and implementing appropriate assessments and treatment strategies is vital. A key element in the occupational therapy profession is using a holistic approach to treating to enhance quality of life.

    An integrated team approach to mental health care management is perceived to improve quality of care and patient outcomes for chronic illnesses. However, limitations in the effectiveness of such management processes specific to the field of mental health exist. Primary limitations include the limited evidence supporting the use of integrated care model within mental health (Woltmann, E., Grogan-Kaylor, A., Perron, B., Georges, H., & Kilbourne, A., 2012). Additionally, research has shown that this model of care can be difficult to sustain due to limited resources including staffing, funding and administrative efforts (Johnston, Peppard, & Newton, 2015).

  • Social Work Intervention

    Assessments and interventions undertaken with offenders necessitate an acknowledgment that social work in the criminal justice system is a political activity, with statutory social workers bound by the legislative and policy frameworks. It is also a moral activity, with a set of standards and codes of practice that determine the values and ethics of practice. Most often our role is determined by a court or a parole board with terms and conditions of supervision and compliance which must be adhered to. The social worker must, however, balance the expectations of the prosecutor with the needs of the offender. The social work role, therefore, becomes one of both support and control.

    The field of medicine, as well as some occupational therapist agreed that the field of occupational therapy did not have enough science, research and theory to back up the therapy in which they provided to patients. Due to this, occupational therapy shifted from the old paradigm which only focused on the benefits of occupations, holistic themes of mind-body and person-environment interaction to a new paradigm which focused more on addressing and treating impairments related to musculosketal, neuromotor and intrapsychic systems. The main focus of occupational therapy after the change was to look within the patient, find out what type of impairment was inhibiting the patient’s quality of life and to use therapy to try and fix the impairment or compensate using different Medias in conjunction with activities and or
