Calling family/friends of people with #BrainInjury: Our PhD student at UTS, Melissa Miao, wants to know your opinions on using an online treatment to improve communication skills between a person with a brain injury & the people around them (see picture/alt text for details)
ALT We are creating an online treatment to improve communication skills between a person with a brain injury and the people around them. Our PhD student at UTS, Melissa Miao, is asking a range of people to take part in an online focus group to discuss what the most important issues are when using or providing this treatment online. Who can participate? People: who have a brain injury who are communication partners of a person with a brain injury (family, friends) with experience providing treatment to someone with brain injury who are a stakeholders in healthcare services (e.g. managers, policymakers) with research expertise in brain injury or digital health.
