The document summarizes an occupational therapy case presentation for a client with neurological issues. It describes the client's medical history and evaluations, including assessments of activities of daily living, range of motion, muscle tone, and home environment. Goals are identified to address safety, participation in therapy, emotional regulation, and hand function. Interventions use models like the Kawa Model and involve techniques like gait training, relaxation, and bilateral hand exercises. Progress is monitored through reevaluation. The prognosis is good depending on the client's engagement in therapy.
Disablement in simple terms.Several definitions of disability or person with disability are used in Jamaica likewise,
several models of disability have been developed over the years which seek to provide an analysis of the social, political, cultural and economic factors that define disability.
The Disablement Model is one of the many models developed over the years.
Sensory integration therapy is used to help children to learn to use all their senses together. That is touch,smell,taste,sight and hearing can improve difficulties/problems in children with special need.

Practice Placements can be a particularly challenging area to navigate issues of prejudice and discrimination, because while they are educational settings - they are external to the remit of the University. We have developed a set of open access learning materials to address this issue, and we hope that students and practice educators will find them helpful.
These open access learning materials were developed part of a co-production project under the Racial and Cultural Equity (RACE) Working Group consisting of students and staff from Brunel University London's Occupational Therapy Division, and funded by Capital AHP, Health Education England.

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

The Kawa Model in Neurology
1. Occupational Therapy Case Presentation (Neurology) Prepared by: Teoh Jou Yin (A 118729) Occupational Therapy Programme Faculty of Allied Health Sciences National University of Malaysia Occupational Therapy: Helping people live lives THEIR way. ~ British Association of Occupational Therapy
2.
3. What is Occupational Therapy’s role? To FACILITATE / ENABLE / EMPOWER clients to engage and participate in life processes and activities that are important and of value to them, i.e. to do the things in life that they want to do and need to do. (Teoh et al. 2010) How to do that?
4. CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF PRACTICE Conceptual models of practice describe phenomena of interest like “occupation” or “occupational performance”, guide treatment approaches by easily allowing therapists to focus on the right problem areas, and help to predict outcomes in clinical interventions. (Iwama 2010)
5. The Kawa Model The essence of the Kawa Model (Iwama 2006) is basically to enable occupational therapists everywhere to “just ask the client how they want to live their lives so that it is more meaningful to them, and look together with them at what we can do to achieve that.” The Kawa Model can be used as a conceptual model of practice, frame of reference, assessment tool and modality. (Iwama 2010) It can be used with any population since it is based on the client's own perceptions of what is important to them, and the only possible contraindication is an occupational therapist unskilled in the therapeutic use of self. DISCUSS THE KAWA MODEL ON FACEBOOK! http://facebook.com/KawaModel
6. FRAMES OF REFERENCE FORs can be defined as the principles behind practice specific to a client population. FORs include a statement of the population to be served, guidelines for determining adequate function or dysfunction, and principles for remediation. (Bruce & Borg 1987)
7. Neuro Developmental Frame of Reference (Pendleton & Schultz-Krohn 2006) Neuro: brain function Developmental: Components of movement required to develop. Core principles: Individualize functional outcomes – provide interventions specfic to client’s context. Emphasise motor control – quality of movement Increase active use of the involved side – manual cues and progressive challenge Provide Practice to improve motor performance leading to motor learning. 24 Hour management to increase retention and turnover. Interdisciplinary approach.
8. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PERFORMANCE FRAMEWORK A summary of interrelated constructs that represent and guide occupational therapy practice and articulate occupational therapy’s contribution to promoting health and participation through engagement in occupation. (AOTA 2008)
11. Kawa Interview (23/9/2010, 30/9/2010) Blue - river - life flow and overall occupationsRed - river walls and floor - environments, social & physicalLilac - rocks - circumstances that block the river flow and cause dysfunction/disabilityYellow - driftwood - personal resources that can be assets or liabilities.
17. AREAS OF OCCUPATION Categories articulating “the many types of occupations in which clients might engage” (AOTA 2008) Activities of daily living (ADL), Instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), Rest and sleep, Education, Work, Play, Leisure, Social participation
19. CLIENT FACTORS Specific abilities, characteristics or beliefs that reside within the client and may affect performance in occupation. (AOTA 2008) Values, beliefs & spirituality; body functions; body structures
20. Client Factors: Body Functions Neuromuscular skeletal and movement related functions Dominant hand: Rt Affected hand: Rt Joint Range of Motion: (23 / 9 / 10) Lt UL AROM: full Rt UL ROM: 1. Shoulder external rotation: AAROM 90, AROM 502. Shoulder abd/add: AAROM 80, AROM 603. Shoulder Extension: AROM 20,4. Shoulder Flexion: AAROM 120, AROM 20 (will produce compensatory movements)5. Elbow: AAROM 70-160, AROM 70-1106. Forearm: No movement, remains in supine postition7. Wrist: No movement. Muscle Tone (Modified Ashworth Scale) Right arm and forearm: 0 / 5 Right wrist and fingers: 3 / 5 Left upper limb: 0 / 5
21. Activity Demands Specific features of an activity that influence the type and amount of effort required to perform the activity. (AOTA 2008)
22. Activity Demands (Activity Analysis) – 30 / 9 / 10 #1 Ambulation- pt walks with abnormal gait- rt knee straightened- rt hip in abduction- rt ankle shows eversion when lowering foot#2 Toileting- pt's toilet and bathroom layout was evaluated and drawn out- pt's tap and hose is on rt side of toilet bowl, towards the back end close to the wall.- pt has difficulty reaching for hose with left hand.- pt does not use toilet paper at home- pt can wash self using hose only, but not clean enough as unable to douche with other hand- pt is able to wipe self and put on garments including panties.
23. Contexts & Environments The variety of interrelated conditions surrounding the client in which the client’s daily life activities occur. (AOTA 2008)
24.
25. Client might have safety concerns getting up from toilet bowl
26.
27. Long Term Goals To regain participation and engagement and participate in life processes and activities that are important and of value to client.
32. Therapist uses modelling, walking alongside patient at a diagonal angle in order for patient to mimic movements.
33.
34. Pt was then educated on why she has to take responsibility and initiative to perform home programme
35. i.e. that once a week therapy was insufficient, that she cannot depend on therapist entirely to take responsibility for her recovery.
36. Pt was encouraged to set timeline for herself to evaluate progress with goals
37. Metaphor of running a race and training for race so can reach finish line was used.It is not what the therapist “does” to the patient, but how the client takes on board the info presented and uses it himself. (Cotton 2005)
38.
39. Pt is also taught to close eyes and take deep breaths when aware that she is beginning to feel anxious.
40. While closing eyes, client is taught to think of calming soothing images i.e. beachside scenery, etc.
41. Outcomes: Pt is now able to perform movements smoothly and easily with minimal fatigue. Source: Conscious Relaxation (Cotton 2005)
42.
43. Pt was asked to relax, close eyes, and visualise both hands opening and closing in slow, controlled movements. (Fine motor movements.)
44. Gross motor movements were addressed by means of shoulder extension exercises (both hands clasped together.)
45. Pt was also educated about purpose of activity and how to perform it at home.
46.
47. Pt is taught to make use of television viewing times as home programme exercise times.
49. Pt was told to perform programme throughout the entire duration of the show (typically 1 hour.)- Exercises as taught in bilateral isokinematic training are applied into home programme (gross and fine motor movements.)Rationale: According to Bobath principle to provide interventions specfic to client’s context. (Pendleton & Schultz-Krohn 2006)
50. Reevaluation (30/9/2010) Activity Analysis - Execution of home programme (Upper extremity gross motor movements, bilateral shoulder raises.) Aim: To identify possible reasons why pt is not compliant to home programme. Method: Pt is asked to demonstrate how she performs exercises at home. Findings: Pt is easily agitated when trying to perform movements, will tense muscles and hold breath, causing easy fatigue. To address: Pt was taught to utilise proper body movements and alignment and incorporate with emotional regulation exercises. Rhythmic breathing was also taught. (Cotton 2005)
51. Prognosis Good. Client has good environmental supports, however much depends on client’s internal locus of control and ability to engage as active part of therapeutic process. Further therapy recommended to address psychosocial issues especially by means of therapeutic use of self. Future Plans Continue occupational exploration. Home visit. Reevaluate interventions. Further assessment of hand disabilities. Community mobility. Driving assessment.
