Overview
Using examples drawn directly from practice, students apply rehabilitation and evaluation theory and research evidence, to propose and evaluate innovations or changes in rehabilitation service delivery.
This paper provides students skills in evidence-based best practice in service evaluation from design through to execution. Students complete the course with a template for a locally applicable service evaluation including reporting and disseminating findings to postgraduate standards.
