Synopsis

Recently, two immersive virtual reality (I-VR) therapy environments (office space and supermarket) were developed by members of this research team. This project will use co-design methodology to develop clinical protocols for use within these immersive virtual reality (I-VR) therapy environments. Specifically, the aims of the project are to: (1) design I-VR therapy tasks suited to the office and supermarket environment to support a range of patient goals for delivery by multidisciplinary AHPs; (2) explore implementation enablers/barriers for using the I-VR therapy program in practice; and (3) identify implementation resources required to support integration of the I-VR therapy environment in clinical practice. Allied health professionals (N=6) from speech pathology (n=2); physiotherapy (n=2) and occupational therapy (n=2) will attend 4 x group meetings to develop the protocols and test them within the I-VR environments. These clinical protocols will be used in future research, to trial implementation of these I-VR environments within allied health rehabilitation services. STARS ID: 120
