The Adaptive Intimacy Lab: MetroHealth and the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation
Description
When people think about spinal cord injury rehabilitation, they usually picture learning to walk again, transferring safely from bed to chair, or figuring out how to dress and bathe independently. Those are critical pieces of recovery.
But there is another part of life that rarely makes it into care plans or team meetings: intimacy and sexual health.
In this episode of The Charity Charge Show, we sit down with three leaders who are changing that reality:
- Gillian Gulan, OTR/L, Occupational Therapist and creator of the Adaptive Intimacy Lab at MetroHealth
- Marcia Meermans, Philanthropy Officer at the MetroHealth Foundation
- Mark Bogosian, Director of Engagement at the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation
Together, they walk through the story of how a simple but honest patient question, a brave idea, and a strong funding partnership led to one of the most unique quality of life projects in the country.
