This book provides practitioners with the foundations onto which
they can build their own understanding and practice within housing.

homes becoming enabling environments, and promoting user-centred
services. The authors argues that occupational therapists working
in the distinct context of housing require additional background
knowledge and professional skills to those used within healthcare
settings.


Explores a broad range of theory bases and developing practice
within the area of occupational therapy in housing

Presents a vast array of knowledge, research and
experience

Written by occupational therapists working as practitioners,
educators and managers, alongside academics in the social policy
and disability issues
