This textbook is an essential resource for life care planners in understanding and assessing a range of medical disabilities, life care planning as a health care service delivery practice, certification under the International Commission on Health Care Certification, and the path to rehabilitation for mild to catastrophic injuries.

Written by a team composed of expert physicians and doctoral-level practitioners, the book covers the key areas of traumatic injury and resultant disability that life care planners so often face. From acquired brain injury and spinal disorders to amputation, chronic pain, posttraumatic debilitating headaches, and plastic reconstructive surgery, the book provides a road map not only to the treatment options available but also the strategies that can lead to rehabilitation and a possible return to work. Each chapter also discusses possible complications, allowing a holistic perspective on each issue.

Also including chapters on medical cost projection analysis and functional capacity evaluation, this is the complete text for both professionals in the fields of rehabilitation services and life care planning, as well as students training to qualify.
