Power to the People: Power Mobility

Develop strategies to maximize client potential via simple adaptations, programming and other drive control choices. 

Join us for a Quickie Masterclass in complex powered mobility.  We’ll go beyond the typical and address when standard features don’t meet client functional need. We’ll look at more complex situations including less typical power seating systems - such as standing, lateral tilt and anterior tilt.   We’ll address complex access and programming issues.  When a joystick isn’t appropriate – what are the options and how do we best assess and evaluate what might work?  How does that fit in with real world funding and assessment issues?

We’ll develop strategies to maximize client potential via simple adaptations, programming and other drive control choices.  We’ll look at integration of smart phones and environmental control units.  You’ll leave this course excited to work with power wheelchairs!
