The Toobeez Teambuilding Activity workbook helps teams to exercise their creative problem-solving, communication and collaboration skills. Using Toobeez, teams may work together to build a bridge to cross the Amazon, learn to trust in an obstacle course or find themselves being lifted through a gigantic cube.The Toobeez Teambuilding program focuses on teambuilding skills while engaging teams in constructive and fun activities. Groups learn about different forms of communication when asked to design a structure using only visual communication. Listening and trust are practiced when groups must work with all but one team member blindfolded. If a group is asked to move as one when one hand is tied behind each team member's back, skills such as cooperation, coordination, and problem solving are applied.

Behavioral Health Protocols and Treatment Plans for Recreational Therapy gives professionals and students efficacy-based protocols for behavioral health settings. The book's guidelines also demonstrate how to develop your own protocols and treatment plans. The book has three sections to assist in creating unique and individualized recreational therapy services. - The diagnostic protocols represent the most common diagnostic groups of clients in behavioral health. They outline the treatment and services routinely provided to clients with a specific diagnosis - Program protocols include structure, process, and outcome criteria that need to be taken into consideration when planning a new program. They describe a specific treatment group that will be offered to a client. - The treatment plans cover many of the difficult behaviors of clients to provide problem-centered, individualized treatment planning. They are a useful resource to show how the therapist can interact with a client to achieve effective outcomes. In addition, bibliographies in each protocol list available outcome-oriented research that may be used to support the effectiveness of recreational therapy services. This expanded second edition includes diagnostic and program protocols for child and adolescent settings, as well as additional protocols for adult and geriatric clients. Behavioral Health Protocols and Treatment Plans for Recreational Therapy will be a frequently used reference for your professional practice.

The profession of recreational therapy relies on the ability to plan, implement, and evaluate the services offered to clients. Determining what those services will be requires a complex assessment process in which therapeutic recreation specialists, recreational therapists, and other rehabilitation professionals integrate client assessment with the classification from the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). Recreational Therapy Assessment is an evidence-based guide that illustrates best practices in performing those assessments in different settings so the needs of each client can be addressed. Recreational Therapy Assessment provides direction on how to assess clients in order to determine their specific needs. The first book of its kind structured to facilitate program planning at an individualized level, readers will find assessment protocols for various consumer groups: Older adults Mental health consumers Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities People with physical disabilities Those from diverse cultural backgrounds Of particular value to readers is understanding how the ICF classification system can aid and affirm assessment goals and outcomes, and how practitioners can better integrate their services with those of other members of an interdisciplinary team of providers. The chapters include practical examples, case studies, reflection questions, and learning activities to promote student understanding and assist in the assessment and classification process. Conducting effective consumer assessments is a vital skill for both current and future professionals in the field of recreational therapy. Recreational Therapy Assessment will prepare readers to perform those assessments to help them plan and implement customized services for a range of clients.
