WWRC Physical and Occupational Therapy staff work together to ist people who need to be fitted with a wheeled mobility device. We have a wide range of manual (push) chairs, power scooters and power Wheelchairs. Therapists will work with clients to determine which type of chair will best meet their needs then have them try using several options to see which one actually works best. The occupational therapist provides istance in choosing the best wheelchair cushion to work with the chair that is chosen. Our Durable Medical Equipment staff is available to help clients understand insurance coverage and payment options for purchasing the recommended equipment. If a client chooses to order equipment at WWRC, we will schedule them to be seen by their therapists when the new device arrives. We want to make sure that the new chair is properly fitted to that person and to instruct them in the proper use and maintenance of the device. At times, we may need to involve WWRC Rehabilitation Engineering staff to do custom modifications or fittings to the equipment.
