Adding an element of fun to ongoing care can be a great way to improve patient participation in rehabilitative care, says Dr Stuart Smith, senior research scientist with Neuroscience Research Australia and a regular on the NBN launch circuit. "You might think video games and health don't go together well," he said. "But this is a game we can use to get people to become more physically active.
