The report is based on a multi-year research project to design, develop and modify adaptive parenting equipment and techniques for parents with physical disabilities, as well as to test and refine measures to assess the impact of adaptive babycare equipment. "Equipment development and its assessment can significantly impact the individual parent, the profession of occupational therapy, and the disability community. Specifically, the equipment allows the parent with a disability to assume a more active parenting role which can enhance parental confidence in parenting, the parent-child relationship, and the family unit."
