Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rehabilitation of the War Cripple One of the major costs of war consists in the thousands of crippled and disabled men which are left in its train. In the past, such soldiers have been indemnified for their injuries - and insufficiently at best - by pension bounty or admission to soldiers' homes. In either instance, they have been relegated to a life of idleness and dependence. These circumstances tend to make for general demoralization, and the popular conception of the adult cripple as lazy, ill-mannered, and intemperate has too often had considerable basis of experience. This situation has been regarded as unfortunate but inevitable. The cripple has been considered as a helpless member of society, to be pitied and maintained, but to whom constructive assistance was not feasible. This attitude is in process of change, for it has been demonstrated that the cripple, though debarred by his handicap from some occupations, could, almost without exception, be fitted by special training for some trades in which he could become self-supporting in spite of his disability. Several influences contributed to progress in this direction. In the first place the great increase in industrial activity during the past two decades brought about a corresponding increment in the number of employees crippled in work accidents. Injuries were particularly frequent in the period before the advent of the safety propaganda. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Redemption of the Disabled: A Study of Programmes of Rehabilitation for the Disabled of War and of Industry Out of the Great War have grown some permanent benefits to humanity, and among these perhaps the greatest is the prospect of emancipation for the physically disabled individual from thralldom of unhappy circumstance. Prodigal as was the expenditure of men, even through the very squandering of man power itself, the fighting nations came to realize the value of the individual and the strength each individual, though disqualified for direct military service, could con tribute to the common cause and aim. Gradually there dawned a different and more enlightened con ception, based not solely upon the use that could be made of remaining assets of strength or skill left to the injured man, but upon justice to the man himself and to his dependents. This new and revolutionizing conception the United States has been first among the nations to apply in all its broadest significance. The United States has initiated a comprehensive pro gramme for the benefit of and in justice to all its dis abled citizens, whether injured upon the firing line in battle or in civil employment contributing to the general community welfare.

Book Retraining Canada s Disabled Soldiers  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Retraining Canada s Disabled Soldiers Classic Reprint written by Walter E. Segsworth and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Retraining Canada's Disabled Soldiers For the purpose of re-establishing in civil life those ex-members of the Canadian Forces so far disabled by service as to be unable to resume their prewar activities, Industrial Re-training was commenced by the Canadian Government in 1915. Mr. W. E. Segsworth, a mining engineer, was appointed Director in July, 1917. The salient features of the Canadian system have been outlined in this volume so that they may be available to those interested in the re-training of the disabled, whether by war or otherwise. This publication should form a distinct contribution to the available knowledge on this subject. There may have been some who, not being familiar with the difference between training normal men and disabled men, were unable to appreciate the basic soundness of the scheme so promptly inaugurated in Canada, and who therefore felt somewhat sceptical of its effectiveness. The practical results obtained from operation over a period exceeding three years, demonstrates its success. Not only had Mr. Segsworth the vision to foresee the value of the plan when started, but with the courage of his convictions he made it effective when requested by me to do so. Although he retired from the active direction of the work nearly a year ago, the organization he developed has been capable of continuing what he so well started, despite an amazing growth in the number of men seeking and receiving the benefit of re-training. An indication of the rapid growth of the activities of Industrial Re-training since Mr. Segsworth became Director in July, 1917, until he retired in March, 1919, to resume his practice as a mining engineer, and thereafter, is obtained from the following: - When the present policy of re-training was adopted and undertaken by him in July, 1917, there were but 638 men in training classes of all kinds. The men receiving their re-training were for the greater part to be found in class rooms which were shared by those taking convalescent training. By December of 1917, the groups were divided, there being at that time 954 men in re-training and 2,199 in convalescent classes. The work has steadily and rapidly grown to the present date, December 31, 1919, at which period there are 23,626 men receiving re-training and 9, 505 graduates. Of the men in retraining, 12,342 are attending schools and 11,284 are training in industries. Classes for convalescents are providing occupational work for an additional 4,323 hospital patients. The figures as of December 31, 1919, include 7,454 minors, young men who enlisted prior to their eighteenth birthday and who, through war service, suffered severe interruption to their training for civilian life, provision for whom was made by the Government as from April 16, 1919. Quite rightly, Mr. Segsworth maintained that unless an unequivocal survey of results was continuously made, the value of the expenditures in money and energy could not be estimated. By his periodical follow-up at their new occupations of those who had been re-trained, data was secured which, I believe, is not available with respect to similar work being conducted in other countries. It might have been reasonably expected that with the rapid and unexpected sudden increase in the number undergoing re-training, combined with the general industrial unsettlement during the transition from war to peace conditions, there would be an appreciable drop in the efficiency of the work. An analysis of the follow-up surveys, however, shows that the organization stood this abnormal strain satisfactorily.

This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Training of Teachers for Occupational Therapy for the Rehabilitation of Disabled Soldiers and Sailors A preliminary survey of the experience of the European nations since the beginning of the great war had convinced the board that it was necessary to develop facts from every source for the formulation of a broad and comprehensive plan for the restoration of men, handicapped as a direct outcome of their military em loyment, to useful industrial employment. This study aims, there ore, to build upon such information as was available before the war, to enrich and complete it with the abundant foreign experience gained since the war, and to anticipate the problems of demobilization which will far outlast the war itself and which will conserve in handicapped labor a resource Of great economic value. Rehabilitation, whether of the war or of industrial cripples, de pends to a large extent on the practice of occupational therapy dur ing convalescence. In the present moment of preparation the United States discovers at once the great need for occupational therapeutists and an e ually great shortage in the supply. It is the principal pur pose Oi t e study presented in this document to attempt to meet this situation, to Show what methods Europe, after costly experiment, has found to be the best, to outline courses for the emergency training of teachers, and to map out the essentials Of a complete national pro gram Of rehabilitation.
