" ... SCI remains a condition with relatively low prevalence, high resource needs, and expertise situated broadly across Canada. This presents a need to align resources – knowledge, people, physical assets – in ways that draw on the strengths within the system to connect Canada's SCI community across the spectrum of care and prepare it for the future." (page 6)
RHI is bringing together people within the SCI community and beyond to draw on evidence and expert knowledge to co-create a vision and achieve a national strategy for Spinal Cord Injury Care, Health and Wellness. While this is not a strategy for RHI, we are able to coordinate this process with our national reach and network.
As a first step we have worked with a team of consultants to develop a plan for co-creating a national strategy and would like to hear your thoughts on the plan Being Bold: Towards a National Spinal Cord Injury Care, Health & Wellness Strategy. In particular we are interested to know:
• What you think about the proposed ideas
• What may be missing and what you might add
• What you see as a priority for the SCI community
Your input will help shape the next steps. Please send your input to Charlene Yousefi, Knowledge Exchange Lead at by Saturday, August 31st, or request a time to provide feedback in-person or over the phone.
