Joint Planning in Paediatric Rehabilitation

The Effectiveness of Joint Planning in Paediatric Rehabilitation: Parent and Child Related Outcomes

We will use one group, pretest-posttest research design. The intervention will have a 6-month timeframe. Up to 18 participants will be selected from active caseloads of the three to six participating healthcare providers in the Early Childhood Rehabilitation Program at the Alberta Children's Hospital, Child Development Centre site in Calgary Alberta. All data will be collected in Alberta using remote measures. Parents and therapists will complete surveys in an online portal. One measure needs to be completed in conjunction with the therapist and parent and will be done in person using an online portal. The researchers will have a local investigator (Debra Teitelbaum) in Calgary who works on-site to help manage data collection and recruitment in person if necessary.
