PURPOSE: This study aims to explore the priorities, preferences, and feedback of multiple healthcare professionals to inform the future development of virtual clinics for community-dwelling adults with spinal cord injury (SCI) in Ontario, Canada.
METHODS: Interpretive description methodology was used to guide our exploration. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 expert healthcare professionals (HCPs) involved in the care of patients with SCI. Interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim. Interview transcripts were then analyzed using a six-phase thematic analysis approach.
RESULTS: HCPs perceived virtual care to improve access to care over the long term, particularly to those living in rural areas, as well as increase connections between different providers. However, participants highlighted that in-person care is still required for management of severe SCI-related sequelae that can be life-threatening, such as pressure ulcers, spasticity, respiratory issues, and bowel and bladder complications.
CONCLUSION: Our findings can be used to inform policymakers, HCPs, and stakeholders involved with SCI rehabilitation when establishing a virtual clinic for patients with SCI. Results of this study found that policymakers and HCPs should consider hybridized (blend of virtual and in-person) healthcare and uptake of multidisciplinary approaches within the virtual healthcare systems.
