Child Development Allied Health Services in Rural and Remote Areas: A Systematic Scoping Review of Drivers, Barriers and Enabling Strategies to Delivery of Services
Findings from this review highlight the complexities of devising and delivering new models of care for children in rural and remote areas with developmental needs. While place-based approaches were the most widely adopted enabling strategy, these strategies presented their own challenges. Understanding community needs, capacity and assets from end-user (including children) perspectives is complex but should underpin designing and implementing models of care.
