A thorough assessment of your posture, potential for skin breakdown, and your level of mobility and function
To learn about various devices and which one will provide you the greatest level of independence, function, mobility, positioning, and skin protection
If pressure reduction cushions are needed. If so, we’ll complete a pressure mapping assessment to determine the most beneficial seat cushion for you

Adjustments to your wheelchair to improve your mobility and comfort
