BEHAVIORAL

Telehealth-delivered participation strategies to increase physical activity

Therapists and primary caregivers will meet online on 6 occasions at fortnightly intervals over a 12 week period. Sessions will enable the development of strategies that will aim to increase the amount the participant stands and walks. Throughout, the therapists and primary caregivers will discuss physical activity needs, determine relevant activities, modify the program as necessary and plan additional goals.
