"Rather than labelling someone as disabled and defining what they can and can't do based on their condition, how about we empower them, ENABLE them! It has become my mission to challenge the stereotypes around disability, provide new opportunities for others like myself and educate as many people as possible."
Th APCP London Region hosted an evening webinar on Tuesday 5th October 2021 with Ryan Raghoo, Founder of Enabled to Disabled TM .
Ryan is an ex-GB international para-athlete and national record holder. He is a Disability and Education Consultant raising awareness of disability issues worldwide.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Empower the patient to lead on outcomes and goals
- Identify tasks that are not only suitable for the individual but allow them to thrive
- Recommend suitable adaptions in school that promote true inclusion
- Support family members to become active members during and outside of physiotherapy
Ryan's presentation reflected his own experiences as a child, young person and adult with Cerebral Palsy and challenged attendees to put the child's perspective at the heart of therapy goals and to make therapy more meaningful for them. A 'must watch' webinar for all paediatric physiotherapists!!
