Webinar description:
Nonadherence is a challenging multifactorial phenomenon with both clinical and business implications. This presentation will address the problem of nonadherence in upper extremity rehabilitation and advocate the need for a behavioral approach to the issue. The construct of adherence will be conceptualized and differentiated from that of compliance. Relevant information from theories of health behavior will be introduced and linked to practice. Specific strategies will be presented to facilitate therapy attendance, home exercise performance and orthosis wear.
