At REHAB’s new Wheelchair Clinic Vendor Days, industry experts and REHAB therapists provide personalized guidance in 60-90 minute sessions so individuals with mobility needs can maximize their independence and ultimately enhance their quality of life.
At the clinic, in-depth assessments are done to evaluate the safety, fit and overall effectiveness of an individual’s wheelchair or scooter. Participants then receive professional guidance that centers around their comfort, skin protection, postural support and operational confidence so they can make changes that have an immediate impact. As the only facility to offer dedicated wheelchair vendor days in Hawaii, REHAB is excited to host this impactful resource for all members of the community with mobility needs on a monthly basis.
“Having the right wheelchair setup is crucial for each individual’s health and enjoyment of everyday life,” said Stephanie Nadolny, President and CEO of REHAB. “Frequent evaluations and tune-ups are key to maximizing wheelchair users’ independence and long-term success.”
