Rehabilitation Apps Aiding Recovery From Home

PANEL & FILM SCREENING

Tuesday 26th October
11am – 12pm

 

 

Research suggests that stroke survivors typically require 100 hours of Speech and Language Therapy to see a marked improvement in their recovery. Yet NHS therapy services are only able to provide a fraction of this, with the COVID-19 pandemic introducing further barriers by further barriers by limiting or removing access to in-person therapies.

This session will begin with a short film that explores some of the latest app-based rehabilitation tools designed to improve outcomes using technology. This will be followed by a panel Q&A featuring Prof Alex Leff, Prof Carolyn Bruce, Prof Rosemary Varley, and Holly Brown from Capgemini.
