The interviews captured perspectives of therapists and people with SCI on the Guidelines as well as barriers and facilitators to the rollout of the Guidelines. The interviews with therapists were guided by the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF). All interviews were transcribed and thematically coded. Barriers and facilitators were then linked to the COM-B model (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation \u2013 Behaviour) to identify implementation strategies.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The barriers to implementation of the Guidelines identified by therapists were lack of knowledge and skill, lack of resources and challenges associated with working within large organisations. Facilitators to the uptake of the Guidelines were providing education, skill training, Guideline champions, awareness, and two-way communication between patient and therapist. Fourteen implementation strategies were identified.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Both therapists and people with SCI thought the Guidelines were a useful tool to improve the quality of care provided to people with SCI across various health settings.
