Objective
Are you a clinician who treats people with spinal cord injury?
Researchers at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab are recruiting for a virtual focus group to find out more about rehabilitation services and outcomes after spinal cord injury. The focus group is part of a research study that aims to expand knowledge about the experiences and outcomes of people living with spinal cord injuries, and how they are related to the length and intensity of rehabilitation services across countries based on findings from research. The purpose of the focus group is to learn how rehabilitation experiences and outcomes are related to rehabilitation length of stay across different countries.
Principal Investigator: Dr. Allen Heinemann, PhD (STU00220806).
Focus group participants will be asked to:
- Attend one 90-minute online focus group with 4-9 other people
- Answer questions in a group format about your experiences providing rehabilitation services to people living with spinal cord injuries
- Answer survey questions before and after the focus group
