Health care professionals need to understand their patients’
views of their condition and its effects on their health and
well-being. This book builds on the World Health Organization's
concepts of 'health', 'functioning' and 'quality of life' for
young people with neurodisabilities: it emphasises the importance
of engaging with patients in the identification of both treatment
goals and their evaluation. Uniquely, it enables health care
professionals to find critically reviewed outcomes-related
information. The authors are leaders in their respective research
fields and discuss theory, concepts, and evidence, and how these
are applied in clinical settings and research applications.
