Funding 101 - Ensuring Evidence to Support Outcomes

What are the foundational elements of writing a funding justification for Assistive Technology? Once we have identified a mobility base to trial, how do we determine that it meets the end users’ needs and gain the evidence required for the funding application? The foundation of a good report is being able to articulate the clinical reasoning process in a way that demonstrates why the AT meets the specific user’s needs. In this course, we will look at the information requirements to demonstrate that the essential criteria has been met. Resources and case examples will be provided during the interactive component.

Objectives:

1. Articulate at least one functional outcome based on the end user’s goals

2. Explain two different types of evidence required when justifying AT solutions

3. Demonstrate at least one way to gather evidence through the trial process

Agenda:

1:30pm - 3:30pm - Session starts

3:30pm - Finish

Permobil APAC

Roseanna Tegel joined Permobil in May 2023 as a Clinical Services Specialist after working as an Occupational Therapist in the community. She graduated from Western Sydney University with a Bachelor of Health Science/Master of Occupational Therapy and received the Prize in Undergraduate Occupational Therapy for Overall Achievement and the Cerebral Palsy Alliance scholarship. Roseanna has worked in residential and community aged care where her understanding of the need for suitable, person-centred equipment commenced. Roseanna then transitioned to community disability and quickly developed an interest for complex seating and mobility outcomes to benefit both the end user and wider network. She then stepped into a Team Leader role due to her passion for learning and best practice; supporting the Occupational Therapists with their own clinical needs and outcomes. Roseanna is motivated to support clinicians with their confidence and clinical reasoning allowing them to provide the best outcome for each individual user.
