Caregiver and clinician perceptions of barriers to cerebral palsy healthcare—mixed methods findings and systems change recommendations
Together stakeholder responses converge on the notion that (1) <i>empowering caregivers</i> to better utilize the resources that do exist and (2) <i>building provider capacity and confidence</i> in efficient delivery of high-quality CP care is critical to drive system changes for improving access and outcomes across the lifespan. Proposed action items for systems change arise from the convergence of caregiver and clinician responses.
