About
Katelyn Ducote’s research focuses on expanding access to rehabilitation for underserved populations, particularly rural veteran stroke survivors. Her work addresses a critical gap in healthcare: the limited availability of cost-effective, home-based therapy for those living far from rehabilitation centers. Ducote’s most influential study, “Increasing Access to Cost Effective Home-Based Rehabilitation for Rural Veteran Stroke Survivors” (2016, 42 citations), demonstrates how robotic devices can deliver reproducible, high-quality therapy at home, improving functional outcomes and quality of life. This research highlights the potential of technology to bridge geographic and economic barriers in stroke recovery. Her follow-up work, “Effect of Home-Based Rehabilitation on Access to Cost Effective Therapy for Rural Veteran Stroke Survivors” (2017, 3 citations), further explores the practical implementation of these interventions. Ducote’s contributions are especially notable for their focus on veterans—a group with unique healthcare needs—and for integrating engineering solutions into clinical rehabilitation. By prioritizing affordability and accessibility, her research offers a scalable model for stroke care that could transform recovery for millions of Americans.
