National Disability Practitioners (NDP) virtual conference

The National Disability Practitioners (NDP) virtual conference for allied health practitioners is Wednesday, 11 December 2019. See below for more information.
https://NDPAlliedVC.
NDP members have highlighted the need for the allied health disciplines to understand more about each others’ scope of practice, roles and challenges as they deliver disability services. To assist in that process, NDP is seeking to develop a presentation with your assistance. They are hoping to identify and develop an exemplar case study—most likely something focused on a young person with cognitive and physical disability that is transitioning from school to employment.
They would then like up to eight allied health practitioners from various disciplines to examine the case and provide a brief (less than 10 minutes) overview of their role in providing AH services to this person. Each overview is pre-recorded and delivered to the conference audience with an appropriate opening and closing.
