The World Health Organization International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (WHO-ICF) provides a framework that helps rehabilitation staff to take a holistic view of the patient. However, it is used predominantly by professionals rather than by active participation on behalf of the person with the disability. In addition, the language used within the framework can be difficult for patients to understand. In order to address these issues the Activities and Participation section of the ICF has been adapted by using graphic symbols. It has been used in conjunction with Talking Mats(™ 1 ), a low-tech communication framework, to help adults with long-term conditions participate in goal setting. This paper describes how this was done and provides examples from clinical practice. The paper discusses how this combined framework can empower people with communication difficulties and long-term conditions to become active participants in the rehabilitation process by identifying their own goals, indicating changing priorities and tracking their progress.
世界卫生组织国际功能、残疾和健康分类（WHO-ICF）提供了一个框架，帮助康复人员全面了解患者。然而，它主要由专业人员使用，而不是由残疾人士代表积极参与。此外，框架内使用的语言可能使患者难以理解。为了解决这些问题，ICF 的活动和参与部分已通过使用图形符号进行了改编。它与 Talking Mats（™ 1）结合使用，Talking Mats（™ 1）是一种低技术的沟通框架，用于帮助患有长期疾病的成年人参与目标设定。本文介绍了如何做到这一点，并提供了临床实践中的例子。本文讨论了这种组合框架如何通过确定自己的目标、表明不断变化的优先事项和跟踪进展情况，使有沟通困难和长期疾病的人能够在康复过程中成为积极的参与者，从而赋予他们权力。
