國立嘉義大學九十六學年度第二學期「休閒教育與輔導」教學大綱課程代號： 0962 Y6400025 修別：選修學分：2授課教師：房兆虎課程名稱：休閒教育與輔導上課班級：大學部輔導諮商系一年級甲班上課時間：星期二1~2 上課教室：未設定(民雄校區)教學目標：1. 建立正確的休閒價值觀、休閒態度與培養休閒嗜好與技能。
世界休閒協會（World Leisure Association）所頒布的「休閒憲章（Charter for Leisure）」（2000年）提到：一、所有的人都有休閒基本人權；二、政府應確保人民容易獲得最高品質的休閒與遊憩機會……而如何落實提供大眾「休閒權」，是目前政府與民間所應關注的課題。
雖然國內已掀起一片休閒熱，但因「休閒能力」不足，也導致個人或社會產生諸多問題。
值得關注的議題包括：休閒是否需要教育？休閒的目標、成效又是如何？在學校體制與非教育機構如何實施？休閒治療方案如何介入個案之輔導歷程？特殊個案之休閒訓練模式2. 肯定「休閒」對提升生活品質的重要性。
首先要改變「休閒」觀念，從過去負面的評價，如「怠惰」、「閒散」或「不事生產」，轉變為「提升生產力」或「紓解身心壓力」等正向評價，進而肯定「休閒使生命更豐碩」的觀點，故休閒領域得以拓展。
如休閒農業、休閒漁業、休閒服、休閒鞋、休閒食品、休閒屋、休旅車、休閒廣場、休閒週報……可見，休閒已不再是有錢人的專利，而是每個人的生活「主流價值」之一。
3. 了解「休閒治療」（Therapy Recreation）領域，以增進輔導專業能力，拓展輔導專業生涯。

'All right, Nick, do you want to get in the water?' And he shook his head yes and put his foot from the dock into the water, and took his foot back.CNN's Porter Andersonreports"And I said, 'No, Nick, you have to say in,' and he looked at me and he said 'in.' "I said,'Let's hear it a little clearer, please.'"And I put my hands to his face like this, and he said 'in.'While the therapy has attracted supporters, many scientists remain skeptical.Mother says son has been helpedBriton Billy Bayles, who has communication and learning difficulties triggered by a chromosome abnormality, also is a patient at the center, but he has yet to speak.With the help of donation s from their hometown of Southampton, his parents raised $10,000 to bring the 8-year-old to the center.He spends 40 minutes every day undergoing speech and communication therapy, a large part of which is interacting with the dolphins. The goal is to let them encourage and stimulate Billy so he can focus on learning to speak.Billy's mother already has noticed an improvement."He's trying to do more signs, because we do a lot of sign language with him so that we can give him another alternative way of communicating with us. And he's actually done a couple of signs which he's not done before," Andrea Bayles said.How does the process work?Some medical professionals admit that dolphins can have a therapeutic effect on people suffering from depression and learning difficulties. But doctors are baffled as to how the process works.One theory is that dolphins use their unique sonar ability to identify neurological disorders in people, then help them relax and open up to learning and healing."These kids gain a tremendous sense of confidence because they've actually, measurably, quantifiably improved," Nathanson said.(187 K / 17 sec. AIFF or WAV sound)But many scientists argue that the children just like the feel of the dolphins, and it is no more than a recreational pastime.And they note that there are no comprehensive studies on dolphin therapy to prove it really works.Doctors at the dolphin therapy center claim they have helped more than 1,000 children overcome learning disorders, and say that represents a 97 percent success rate.Recreational Therapy:An Integral Aspect ofComprehensive HealthcareThe American Therapeutic Recreation Association, the largest national organization representing recreational therapy professionals, has prepared this statement to facilitate the understanding of the critical role recreational therapists play in comprehensive healthcare and to facilitate the recognition of thecost-effective nature of utilizing recreational therapy services to ensure the total rehabilitation and quality of life for persons with disabilitiesWhat is recreational therapy?Recreational therapy, also referred to as therapeutic recreation, is defined by the United States Department of Labor as a profession of specialists who utilize activities as a form of treatment for persons who are physically, mentally or emotionally disabled (Paraphrased, Occupational Outlook Handbook, U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, April 1991). Differing from diversional or recreation services, recreational therapy utilizes various activities as a form of active treatment to promote the independent physical, cognitive, emotional and social functioning of persons disabled as a result of trauma or disease, by enhancing current skills and facilitating the establishment of new skills for daily living and community functioning.Who delivers recreational therapy services?Recreational therapy services are delivered by qualified professionals with training and education in therapeutic recreation/recreational therapy service delivery and professionally certified by the National Council for Therapeutic Recreation Certification (NCTRC).The professional certification designation is Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS). The credential requires a bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited institution of higher education in the area of therapeutic recreation (recreational therapy), an approved internship under the supervision of a professionally credentialed CTRS, and the passing of a national certification examination administered for the NCTRC by the Educational Testing ServiceWhat is the projected demand for recreational therapy?According to the United States Department of Labor's 1994 Occupational Outlook Handbook, "Employment of recreational therapists is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations through the year 2005, because of the anticipated expansion in long-term care, physical and psychiatric rehabilitation, and services for the disabled." There are over 30,000 employment positions in the United States and the growth rate is projected at 40% through the year 2005. It is important to note that employment is available in a wide variety of settings, working with individuals with varying types of disabilities and illnesses.Where are recreational therapy services delivered?Recreational therapy services are delivered in a variety of settings depending on the needs of the consumer. Settings in which services are traditionally delivered include freestanding rehabilitation hospitals, rehabilitation units in general hospitals,long-term care, subacute care, or skilled nursing facilities, substance abuse rehabilitation facilities, home healthcare services, and residential facilities for persons with disabilities.What are the benefits of recreational therapy services?Research indicates that recreational therapy services, provided by qualifiedprofessionals, offer a diversity of rehabilitation benefits addressing the needs of individuals with a range of disabling conditions. A recent conference, sponsored by Temple University and funded through the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR), evaluated the efficacy of therapeutic recreation services as a treatment modality on rehabilitation outcomes. Research has demonstrated the value of recreational therapy services for individuals with a range of diagnoses.Recreational therapy is a component of comprehensive rehabilitation. Such comprehensive rehabilitation services have proven to be cost-effective. A survey conducted by the Health Insurance Association of America indicated a savings of $11 for every $1 spent on rehabilitation. In addition, other studies have indicated that quality comprehensive rehabilitation services reduce long-term hospitalization and nursing home stays for stroke patients and thus save the American economy $17,000 per year per patient. Recreational therapy services play a significant role in comprehensive efficient healthcare systems.∙Recreational therapy services are an effective means for improving the functioning, independence, and quality of life of persons with illness ordisability. The provision of recreational therapy services, in concert withrelated disciplines such as occupational therapy, physical therapy andspeech therapy, offer the client or patient comprehensive rehabilitationservices. The proper mix of services and the therapist-client relationshipproves to be of maximum benefit to the consumer.∙Well managed and cost effective services are an investment in human potential. Recreational therapy services utilize both individual and smallgroup intervention strategies, therefore, staff/patient ratios arecost-effective. More patient treatment hours per therapist can be generated through the use of such small group interventions. Furthermore, recreational therapy services for older Americans are equally cost-effective. Recreational therapists play a significant role in assisting older adults to maintain current skills and re-establish previous levels of functioning in the least restrictiveenvironment possible. Recreational therapists work in concert with andprovide complement to other treatment modalities.∙Recreational therapy plays a primary role in enhancing the quality of life and productivity of the consumer. Enjoyable activities and social relations aresignificant in promoting he quality of life and productivity of the individualwith a disability. Recreational therapists offer individuals with disabilities the opportunity to resume normal life activities and to establish/re-establishskills for successful social integration. In addition, the therapist will employ treatment modalities which promote physical skill development, enhancefeelings of well-being, foster successful experiences, facilitate continuedinvolvement in the rehabilitation process, and establish new life activities for continued growth.Utilization of Recreation Therapy Services as a Standard Service in Managed Healthcare SystemsRecreational therapy as a member of the core rehabilitation treatment teamRecreational therapy is listed as one of the physical rehabilitation services in the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) standards. Recreational therapists are standard treatment team members in psychiatric rehabilitation, substance abuse treatment, and physical rehabilitation services. In addition, recreational therapists are designated as members of the comprehensive core treatment team in the acute brain injury, the post-acute brain injury, and the inpatient rehabilitation standards of the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) Since the 1940's, recreational therapists have served as active members of the interdisciplinary treatment team addressing the psychosocial and physical rehabilitation needs of the consumer. Recreational therapy will certainly have an active role in a managed care and managed competition system with emphasis on providing opportunities for meeting rehabilitation goals, accessing life skills and opportunities, and providing quality services in the most cost-efficient manner. These functions must be performed on an on-going basis in concert with other allied health fields such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy and audiology. Although some overlap occurs between all disciplines in area such as activities of daily living, vocational and avocational adjustment, and application of motor performance skills in the natural environment, the disciplines mutually complement each other in the rehabilitation environment. For instance, each discipline may work on the development of physical skills and activities of daily living. Much of the responsibility for community adjustment and integration efforts in the rehabilitation setting, however, has become the charge of the recreational therapist. In addition, recreational therapists assist the consumer in developing or re-developing social skills, discretionary time skills, decision making skills, coping abilities, self-advocacy, discharge planning for re-integration, and skills to enhance general quality of life. As with each allied health discipline, treatment goals are based upon individual needs. The ability to meet thephysical and psychosocial needs of the person affected by a disability is critical to the pursuit of independent productivity in vocational and avocational endeavors.Recommendations in Healthcare AllocationsThe American Therapeutic Recreation Association is in support of a healthcare allocations package which ensures coverage for all Americans. This package should include cooperative efforts between public and private health insurance programs. The healthcare package should also include standard coverage of a range of rehabilitative services including recreational therapy services. Current practices restrict the range of rehabilitation services that are identified as standard reimbursable services under Part A of the Medicare and Medicaid Guidelines (e.g. physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and respiratory care.) Through inclusion and utilization of recreational therapy services under Part A and Part B of the Medicare and Medicaid Guidelines, the healthcare provider will have access to additional options to meet the treatment needs of the consumer. The availability of a broader base of outcome oriented therapies and the application of a proper combination of therapeutic modalities will offer several dramatic benefits:∙ The specific needs of the consumer can be better met with the greater availability of disciplines.∙Proper mixes of therapies in a managed care and managed competition system offers a more cost-effective means to meet consumer needs.∙This approach responds in the most effective and efficient manner to the critical shortage of healthcare practitioners by expanding the pool ofavailable professionals.The utilization of recreational therapy offers an opportunity for accessing these treatment options to meet the "personal assistance services" of the healthcare consumer. This approach would provide expanded options and service mixes which will prove more cost-effective. For instance: At the current time, if an individual is receiving rehabilitation services for a cerebral vascular accident (stroke), the individual will likely be involved in 1:1 (one on one) physical therapy services to improve range of motion. Should there be an option of inclusion of recreational therapy services (frequently prescribed in group format), the person could receive 60% physical therapy 1:1 services and 40% recreational therapy services in aquatic therapy groups. The result is a mix that is in the best interest of the consumer and will prove to be more cost-effectiveConclusionIn conclusion, the American Therapeutic Recreation Association is in support of cost-effective healthcare opportunities for all citizens. The growing need to ensure basic services to all of America's citizens is evident. The number of Americans requiring health and rehabilitation services continues to increase due to an aging population, disabling conditions, improved treatment services, and greater survival rates. The need to access a broad range of services, therefore is crucial. The intent should be the utilization of effective treatment options as standard services within a healthcare program. Recreational therapy should be included as a viable option to meet the needs of consumers with disabilities. Ultimately, the availability of managed healthcare options which respond to the unique treatment needs of individuals with disabilities will prove cost-effective. Inclusion of a comprehensive system that responds to individual healthcare consumer needs will reduce the length of hospital stay, reduce hospital recidivism, and maximize on the productivity of the individual. Recreational therapy has been and should continue to be included as an effective treatment discipline in the provision of quality, cost-effective healthcare services.U.S. Department of LaborBureau of Labor StatisticsRecreational TherapistsNature of the WorkWorking ConditionsTraining, Other Qualifications, and AdvancementEmploymentJob OutlookEarningsRelated OccupationsSignificant PointsOverall employment of recreational therapists is expected to grow more slowly than the average for all occupations, but employment of therapists who work in community care facilities for the elderly and in residential mentalretardation, mental health, and substance abuse facilities should grow faster than the average.Opportunities should be best for persons with a bachelor degree in therapeutic recreation, or in recreation with a concentration in therapeuticrecreation.Recreational therapists should be comfortable working with persons who are ill or who have disabilities.NATURE OF THE WORKRecreational therapists, also referred to as therapeutic recreation specialists, provide treatment services and recreation activities to individuals with disabilities or illnesses. Using a variety of techniques, including arts and crafts, animals, sports, games, dance and movement, drama, music, and community outings, therapists treat and maintain the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of their clients. Therapists help individuals reduce depression, stress, and anxiety; recover basic motor functioning and reasoning abilities; build confidence; and socialize effectively so that they can enjoy greater independence, as well as reduce or eliminate the effects of their illness or disability. In addition, therapists help integrate people with disabilities into the community by teaching them how to use community resources and recreational activities. Recreational therapists should not be confused with recreation workers, who organize recreational activities primarily for enjoyment. (Recreation workers are discussed elsewhere in the Handbook.)In acute health care settings, such as hospitals and rehabilitation centers, recreational therapists treat and rehabilitate individuals with specific health conditions, usually in conjunction or collaboration with physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and physical and occupational therapists. Inlong-term and residential care facilities, recreational therapists use leisure activities—especially structured group programs—to improve and maintain their client’s general health and well-being. They also may provide interventions to prevent the client from suffering further medical problems and complications related to illnesses and disabilities.Recreational therapists assess clients on the basis of information the therapists learn from standardized assessments, observations, medical records, the medical staff, the client’s families, and the clients themselves. They then develop and carry out therapeutic interventions consistent with the client’s needs and interests. For example, clients who are isolated from others or who have limited social skills may be encouraged to play games with others, and right-handed persons with right-side paralysis may be instructed in how to adapt to using their unaffected left side tothrow a ball or swing a racket. Recreational therapists may instruct patients in relaxation techniques to reduce stress and tension, stretching and limbering exercises, proper body mechanics for participation in recreational activities, pacing and energy conservation techniques, and individual as well as team activities. In addition, therapists observe and document a patient participation, reactions, and progress.Community-based recreational therapists may work in park and recreation departments, special-education programs for school districts, or programs for older adults and people with disabilities. Included in the last group are programs and facilities such as assisted-living, adult day care, and substance abuse rehabilitation centers. In these programs, therapists use interventions to develop specific skills, while providing opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, creativity, and fun. Although most therapists are employed in other areas, those who work in schools help counselors, teachers, and parents address the special needs of students, including easing disabled student’s transition into adult life.WORKING CONDITIONSRecreational therapists provide services in special activity rooms, but also plan activities and prepare documentation in offices. When working with clients during community integration programs, they may travel locally to instruct the clients regarding the accessibility of public transportation and other public areas, such as parks, playgrounds, swimming pools, restaurants, and theaters.Therapists often lift and carry equipment, as well as lead recreational activities. Recreational therapists generally work a 40-hour week that may include some evenings, weekends, and holidays.TRAINING, OTHER QUALIFICATIONS, AND ADVANCEMENTA bachelor degree in therapeutic recreation, or in recreation with a concentration in therapeutic recreation, is the usual requirement for entry-level positions. Persons may qualify for paraprofessional positions with an associate degree in therapeutic recreation or a health care related field. An associate degree in recreational therapy; training in art, drama, or music therapy; or qualifying work experience may be sufficient for activity director positions in nursing homes.Approximately 150 programs prepare students to become recreational therapists. Most offer bachelor degrees, although some also offer associate, master , ordoctoral degrees. Programs include courses in assessment, treatment and program planning, intervention design, and evaluation. Students also study human anatomy, physiology, abnormal psychology, medical and psychiatric terminology, characteristics of illnesses and disabilities, professional ethics, and the use of assistive devices and technology.Although certification is usually voluntary, most employers prefer to hire candidates who are certified therapeutic recreation specialists. The National Council for Therapeutic Recreation Certification is the certificatory agency. To become certified, specialists must have a bachelor degree, pass a written certification examination, and complete an internship of at least 480 hours. Additional requirements apply in order to maintain certification and to recertify. Some States require licensure or certification to practice recreational therapy.Recreational therapists should be comfortable working with persons who are ill or who have disabilities. Therapists must be patient, tactful, and persuasive when working with people who have a variety of special needs. Ingenuity, a sense of humor, and imagination are needed to adapt activities to individual needs, and good physical coordination is necessary to demonstrate or participate in recreational activities.Therapists may advance to supervisory or administrative positions. Some teach, conduct research, or consult for health or social services agencies.EMPLOYMENTRecreational therapists held about 24,000 jobs in 2004. About 6 out of 10 were in nursing care facilities and hospitals. Others worked in State and local government agencies and in community care facilities for the elderly, including assisted-living facilities. The rest worked primarily in residential mental retardation, mental health, and substance abuse facilities; individual and family services; Federal Government agencies; educational services; and outpatient care centers. Only a small number of therapists were self-employed, generally contracting with long-term care facilities or community agencies to develop and oversee programs.JOB OUTLOOKOverall employment of recreational therapists is expected to grow more slowly than the average for all occupations through the year 2014. In nursing care facilities—the largest industry employing recreational therapists—employment will grow slightly faster than the occupation as a whole as the number of older adults continues to grow. Employment is expected to decline, however, in hospitals asservices shift to outpatient settings and employers emphasize cost containment. Fast employment growth is expected in the residential and outpatient settings that serve disabled persons, the elderly, or those diagnosed with mental retardation, mental illness, or substance abuse problems. Among these settings are community care facilities for the elderly (including assisted-living facilities); residential mental retardation, mental health, and substance abuse facilities; and facilities that provide individual and family services (such as day care centers for disabled persons and the elderly). Opportunities should be best for persons with a bachelor degree in therapeutic recreation or in recreation with an option in therapeutic recreation. Opportunities also should be good for therapists who hold specialized certifications, for example, in, aquatic therapy, meditation, or crisis intervention.Health care facilities will support a growing number of jobs in adult day care and outpatient programs offering short-term mental health and alcohol or drug abuse services. Rehabilitation, home health care, and transitional programs will provide additional jobs.The rapidly growing number of older adults is expected to spur job growth for recreational therapy professionals and paraprofessionals in assisted-living facilities, adult day care programs, and other social assistance agencies. Continued growth also is expected in community residential care facilities, as well as in day care programs for individuals with disabilities.EARNINGSMedian annual earnings of recreational therapists were $32,900 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $25,520 and $42,130. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $20,130, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $51,800. In May 2004, median annual earnings for recreational therapists were $28,130 in nursing care facilities.RELATED OCCUPATIONSRecreational therapists primarily design activities to help people with disabilities lead more fulfilling and independent lives. Other workers who have similar jobs are occupational therapists, physical therapists, recreation workers, and rehabilitation counselors.休閒反被視為一種必要的人權：19從休閒價值觀談休閒不動產的發展趨性黃勝雄在歷史的某些階段，「休閒」曾被視為負面的、消極的、甚至罪惡的，例如Thorstein Veblen 在1899 年的著作「休閒階級論」(The Theory of the。
