Remote Peer Navigator Intervention for Adults with Newly Acquired Disabilities
This study, called OP-ENS - CL, is looking at whether a remote peer navigator program can help adults with new physical disabilities as they transition back to community living. You could be eligible if you're 18 or older, have a physical disability from a neurological condition (like a spinal cord injury, stroke, or Parkinson's disease) that started in the last 6 months, and have moved back into the community within the last 4 months. The program involves connecting you with a trained peer navigator who also has a physical disability. They will offer support and guidance through conversations, goal setting, and action planning over 12 months. Researchers want to see if this program improves your social support, self-confidence, overall health, and participation in the community. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
- Study design
- This study plans to enroll 100 participants who will be randomly assigned to either receive the OP-ENS - CL intervention or usual care.
- What's involved
- If you join the intervention group, you will meet with a peer navigator at least once a month for 12 months. Your progress will be measured at the start, at 6 months, and at 13 months.
- Compensation
- Progressive micro-incentives are integrated into the study protocol to encourage participation.
- Follow-up
- Your progress will be followed for 13 months, with measurements taken at baseline, 6 months, and 13 months.
