We have designed an app & wrist-worn device for young people with hemiplegic cerebral palsy to encourage increased use of the affected arm. Next step: pilot it!
Happy to say that we are up and running again and welcoming participants into our #pilotstudy - wrist worn devices & a smartphone app to promote increased use of the affected arm and hand 🙌🏼
Home programmes for children seem more relevant now than ever - see the new @RCOT_CYPF@theRCOT Resource on occupational therapy home programmes for children and young people with cerebral palsy or an intellectual disorder: https://t.co/c2KiF46Xy6
