Recreation as Therapy?
“While (RT) has much to offer...its specific contribution lies in the area of leisure functioning. Because leisure is such an integral part of most peoples lives, it is seen as vitally important to individuals overall quality of life and life satisfaction”. (Peterson, 2000)
Quality of Life• Simply increasing the variety and frequency of
social and leisure activities may not increase SQOL
• Increase opportunities for participation with others
• Enhance subjective experience of social and leisure activities
• Specific to patients with TBI; social support network, redefining oneself though new roles, and participating in fulfilling and meaningful activities
What does this mean for RT?“Providing the right patient with the right service (at) the right time in the right setting at the right intensity and for the right duration”. (Navar, 1991)
Accountability via the Leisure Ability Model• Functional Intervention
o Baseline abilities that are prerequisite to typical leisure behavior hand-eye coordination, endurance, strength, memory, attention,
orientation, expression• Leisure Education
o Development of leisure-related skills, attitudes and knowledge leisure awareness, social interaction skills, leisure activity skills
and leisure resources• Recreation Participation
o An expression of one’s leisure lifestyle opportunities for fun, enjoyment and self-expression within an
organized delivery system
leagues, tournaments, arts and crafts, music, fitness classes, park
or pool
(Peterson,
2000)
