Current Mobility: You are able to walk or transfer from one position to another independently without the help of another person with or without aids.

Communication: You are able to communicate independently, either verbally or with the use of Augmentative and Alternative Communication

What is involved?

An online survey taking approximately 15- 30 minutes (mail and assistance via phone and Zoom options for completion are also available) – Completely voluntary and anonymous.
