Survey Participation
• Using the “Snowball Sampling Technique” an attempt
was made to acquire an exhaustive list of contact
information of Canadian OTs and PTs who dedicated a
substantial portion of their clinical practice to burn
survivor rehabilitation.
• 131 surveys were mailed out (both English and French
versions were sent to each person)
• 62 participants responded to the survey
• 31 participants responded that they no longer actively
worked with burn survivors
• 8 surveys were returned as “wrong address”
• There was no response for 30 surveys
