We are looking to speak to patients and caregivers/parents of patients living with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) between the ages of 12 and 17 that would be interested in sharing their experiences living with this condition. We are looking to speak with caregivers of patients who are based in Canada to take part in an online survey to learn from their experiences.The objective is to understand the treatments experiences of someone living the condition and the burden of the disease. Specifically, we would like to understand what is it like to live with the condition, attitudes towards the condition, the patient journey, perceptions of treatments, and views on the challenges and any unmet needs. This information will help us to develop a deeper understanding of how patients think about, orient to, and make decisions around treatment for their illness along with health care professionals. 🔒Information shared will be treated confidentially and reported in aggregate form only. ⏱Participants will be asked to participate in an online survey which will last approximately 30 minutes. 💰As a token of our appreciation, we will be offering an incentive of 65 CAN$ in recognition of their willingness to share their story with us, paid via Amazon voucher or bank transfer. 10% of the incentive (or more if they wish) will be donated to a registered charity.We would not be asking you to share any personal information of your members with us but would we would ask if you would be able to share details (Landing page link: www.liberatingsurveys.com/en/enquire/632) of the study with your members and should they be interested, they can contact us directly.
