REPAR's goals for this theme

1. Offer more clinical research opportunities in novel areas of research within a multidisciplinary, multicenter, healthcare and services continuum context;

2. Diversify and maximize funds available to members for research activities;

3. Promote networking on a national and international level.

Programs and Objectives

Program 4.1 - Joint grant program for research in rehabilitation and occupational reintegration (IRSST/REPAR)

Promote the development of research in the field of occupational rehabilitation for workers with a workplace injury, and in so doing, promote networking among researchers in rehabilitation and occupational reintegration in the field of occupational health and safety; Consolidate research teams to obtain funds from other funding agencies in the field of rehabilitation and occupational reintegration.

Programme 4.2 - Clinical research partnership in physiotherapy (OPPQ/REPAR)

Enable Master's level degree physiotherapists to pursue research collaborations with REPAR researchers on topics specific to physiotherapy interventions.

Program 4.3 -ONF/REPAR Neurotrauma Research Partnership

Promote research collaborations between Quebec and Ontario through the creation of research teams in neurotraumatology rehabilitation in order to produce high quality inter-provincial projects in specific fields such as spinal cord and brain injuries.

Program 4.4 - Trauma Research Development Consortium in Quebec (Consortium)

In its final stage of development

Develop multicenter and multidisciplinary clinical research on a trauma health and services continuum in Quebec. The continuum includes the following phases: acute care, intensive functional rehabilitation, support for reintegration and return to community life (social reintegration), including occupational therapy.

Through its scientific programs, the REPAR is becoming the obvious, if not natural, choice as facilitator for carrying out multicenter, multidisciplinary, clinical research activities, training the future generation of researchers within a networking-focused context, and providing support for evidence-based practice in the influential field of health science known as rehabilitation.
