Knowledge for All Repository (KAR)
Vision
Knowledge is meant to be free and needs to be shared widely. The paramount goal of all professionals working in neurorehabilitation is the benefit of the patient. The expert task force strongly believes in, and is committed to share any knowledge that will enable improved care.
Mission
- To create a ‘Repository of Tools’ that can be used for evaluation, rehabilitation planning, interventions and monitoring outcomes in persons with neurological dysfunction.
- To provide all information about these tools for professionals to improve clinical practice and research initiatives.
- To include tools that are relevant in the Indian context.
- To integrate the ICF framework by having comparative domains and linking the measures to relevant ICF Codes
Disclaimer
- Please note that IFNR KAR only maintains the website and does not hold any copyright for resources. For requests relating to use or adaptation of the tool, kindly contact the creator of the tool directly.
- The repository resources are limited to select tools. The selection is based on the experience and expertise of the Task Force, and includes tools commonly used in India.
- The tools in the repository will be reviewed and updated at regular intervals.
- If any individual or institution is working on the creation or adaptation and validation of neurorehabilitation tools, you are invited to collaborate with IFNR KAR. Please write to us at kar@ifnr.org
