Co-design of a rehabilitation service that evaluates upper limb movement in children with disabilities.

Description 
Are you interested in being part of designing from scratch a rehabilitation service that centres the voice of lived experience of patients with upper limb disabilities? Are you passionate about gathering genuine patient experience and input right at the beginning of service design? This project is looking to bring together all relevant stakeholders - children, families, carers, allied health and medical staff - to co-design an assessment service that uses technology - either high or low end - to objectively assess upper limb movement for the purposes of informing rehabilitation programs and/or interventions. This is an opportunity to truly and genuinely design a healthcare service that meaningfully and deliberately centers the consumer in designing a service by them, for them.
