Do you have experience of working with assistive devices for hands and wrists, or users requiring assistive devices?
Do you have experience of working with assistive devices for hands and wrists, or users requiring assistive devices? We are looking for people who fit these criteria to take part in an online research survey titled “Analysis of current hand and wrist assistive devices, and requirements for a future device”.
The questions will include your opinions and experiences prescribing and assessing assistive devices, your preferred assistive devices, outcome measures and expectations of assistive devices. The online questionnaire should take no more than 15 minutes of your time.
The study contributes to future healthcare research in designing assistive hand and wrist devices from the perspective of the workforce who develop, assess, and prescribe them.
More information about the study, eligibility, and how to take part can be found by following the link to the survey:

Are you interested in digitalisation and informatics?
We have an opportunity for a BAPO member to attend a forum where AHP colleagues can discuss and share anything about digital and informatics.
The group will meet every 7/8 weeks. It is an informal, open space to share what has been going on within our own profession but also to establish opportunities to collaborate and learn from other professions. There is no agenda but it is a forum to ask questions and share our thoughts together. There will be colleagues from every AHP professional body. There may also be a potential future digital AHP conference or networking group.
The individual will need to have an understanding of the digital agenda, and a passion to represent BAPO in this space by contributing to a wider MDT forum. This is a great opportunity to learn and develop your skills.
If this is something you would be interested in, please contact enquiries@bapo.com.
