From: Rehab Management - 06/07/2017
By: Elizabeth Cole, Director of Clinical Applications for Permobil

What does the accelerating integration of technology in seating and mobility
products mean for therapists and mobility device users? Elizabeth Cole
answers that question when she details several new technologies with advanced
features, such as enabling therapists to remotely monitor equipment for
compliance, or allowing wheelchair users to manage their home environment
from a drive control.

Discover the unparalleled insight these technologies provide therapists about
how seating and mobility devices are being operated, as well as how they can
increase user independence. Devices spotlighted include ROHO's SmartCheck,
Permobil's Virtual Seating Coach, SmartDrive's Pushtracker, Permobil's R-net
Bluetooth iDevice Module, and R-net Bluetooth Mouse.

Find out why these technologies are moving from "nice to have" to must-have
essentials for people affected by disabilities.
