Abstract:
It is unknown if an online tool is wanted by therapists and parents of individuals with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) to support implementation of goal-directed home programs, and if wanted, the recommended features for the tool. The objective was to explore the experiences of therapists and parents who have implemented home programs, seek guidance on translating a paper-based home program toolbox into a mobile website, and develop the website. Qualitative descriptive methodology guided data collection using semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis, validated with field notes and member checking. A team science, iterative approach was used to integrate the themes into the development of the mobile website. Five primary themes including recommendations for the functionality, features, content, and naming of the mobile website were identified. Parents and therapists value home programs. Participants provided recommendations regarding content and features, and the GO Move mobile website was developed based on the recommendations.
