Occupational Therapy Equipment Trial

Our Toowoomba Team are currently trialling a chin control on a sports wheelchair for one of our customers who plays football in the QLD Power Chair Football Association.

He is currently using a hand control, but due to declining movement and function in his hand, another option had to be explored. Utilising the chin control will allow him to continue to engage in this occupation that he loves, and which significantly contributes to his quality of life. It was a fantastic session to see our him zooming around in his chair, reporting that the chin control will allow him to do 180 degree turns and take off straight away with the ball, which he was unable to do with the hand control.
