Abstract

Date Presented 03/26/20

The objective of this study was to develop and test the acceptability and usability of a mobile application directory of OTs who provide home modifications in the United States. Preliminary results show the mobile application demonstrates good preliminary acceptability and usability to OTs. The mobile application shows promise as a new tool to help increase access to home modification interventions provided by OTs.
