Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Patients and families affected by rehabilitation needs who could benefit from precision rehabilitation practices and resources.
✕Less likely to help
Patients not involved in rehabilitation or not seeking precision approaches may see limited direct benefit.
What this research studies
This core supports broad stakeholder engagement to spread precision rehabilitation resources. It will create a Stakeholder Engagement Council with people living with conditions, families, clinicians, researchers, and technology experts, using participatory action methods. It aims to develop a plan for community outreach and provide a national resource to assist clinicians and researchers in applying precision rehabilitation in practice. The core emphasizes collaboration, resources sharing, and translation of research into real-world clinical care.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this core could speed up bringing precision rehabilitation findings into everyday care for patients and caregivers.
How similar studies have gone: Other centers have shown that structured community engagement improves translation of rehabilitation research into practice.
