How might we co-create a roadmap for improving the current rehabilitation and recovery services for people with stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury in British Columbia?
The current landscape of rehabilitation and recovery for stroke, brain injury, and spinal cord injury in BC is made up of a variety of systems and services that face challenges in the coordination of care across an individual’s lifespan. Barriers like the imbalance of specialized health centers and providers across BC, acute-focused care, and the limitations of financial support demonstrate a need for a unified strategy to better support people with these injuries, who require highly specialized expertise and equitable support.
