What is the study about?
This study aims to find out why, when
and where people use mobility scooters.
Motorised mobility devices are costly, and only
sometimes available through Government
subsidised programs, yet scooters have the
potential to greatly increase community
participation and quality of life. This study
will ask about your experience of using an
electric scooter, the process you went through
to obtain the device, as well as the positive
and negative aspects of your experience.
Who is carrying out the study?
The study is being conducted by Kara
Edwards, a fourth year occupational therapy
student at The University of Sydney and is
supervised by Dr Annie McCluskey. This project
will contribute to an honours research thesis.
What is involved?
If you decide to take part in the
study, you will be required to complete a
written survey, which takes about 15 minutes to
complete.
