Description:
Unrivaled for two decades, Measures for Clinical Practice is the single tool every clinician needs to assess, monitor, and treat patients. It is the only source where people in the helping professions can find reliable and valid scales to help them gather the vital information necessary for work with patients and state agencies and insurance companies. In today's managed care environment, health professionals have stricter guidelines to follow and less time to spend on ever-greater numbers of patients. Thus, the rapid, research-based assessment instruments provided here are brief and easy to administer and interpret.
Expand description
Divided into two volumes, one containing all the measures that a family therapist would need to treat couples, families, and children, and the second containing the measures that general social workers and psychologists use with their adult patients, Measures for Clinical Practice has been revised and expanded for the year 2000. With an updated general discussion of issues in assessment and new material on assessment within culturally diverse populations and on measurement in managed care systems, it is more comprehensive than ever as a professional resource and as a practitioner-training manual.
