Background Parents of children with physical disabilities do much to support their child in daily life. In doing so, they are faced with many challenges. These parents have a wide range of unmet needs, especially for information, on various topics. Getting timely and reliable information is very difficult for parents, whereas being informed is a major requirement for the process of empowerment and shared decision-making. This paper describes the development of a digital tool to support parents in this process. During its development, working together with parents was crucial to address relevant topics and design a user-centred intervention. Methods In co-creation with parents, healthcare professionals, IT-professionals and researchers, a digital tool was developed, the ‘WWW-roadmap’ [‘WWW-wijzer’ in Dutch]. This digital tool aims to enable parents to explore their questions (What do I want to know?), help in their search for information (Where can I find the information I need), and refer to appropriate professionals (Who can assist me further?). During the process, we got extensive feedback from a parent panel consisting of parents of children with physical disabilities, enabling us to create the tool ‘with’ rather than ‘for’ them. This led to a user-friendly and problem-driven tool. Discussion The WWW-roadmap can function as a tool to help parents formulate their questions, search for information and thus prepare for consultations with healthcare professionals, and to facilitate parental empowerment and shared-decision making by parent and professional. Effects of using the WWW-roadmap on consultations with professionals will be studied in the future. |
