Dr. Kate Scrivener - Therapy dose, Stroke Mobility Outcomes, Teaching Neuro A Neuro Physio Podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
Dr. Kate Scrivener is a Senior Lecturer of Physiotherapy at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia where she’s an educator and researcher. She’s also an educator with the Stroke Ed collaboration and that energy for education & innovation has seen her develop the REPS app and website - a set of exercise programs designed to help stroke survivors exercise at home, and the TRAIN program - a clinician’s guide to effective task specific training. Until recently she also worked clinically at Concentric Rehab in Sydney. She’s the lead investigator on the HiWalk trial and is involved in a number of other projects we didn’t get to talk about in the episode.
Kate’s episode zeros in on a number of her passion areas:
- Education - making neuro easier to understand for students and implementing evidence into practice for practicing physios.
- Improving mobility, especially in the chronic phase in the community
- Increasing dose of therapy
All this culminates in her HiWalk trial which has just finished recruitment.
There’s plenty to take away from this episode.
