Description

Join Sara and Sheila as we conquer assistive technology and gait.  We discuss the five elements of assistive technology: adaptive seating and positioning, wheeled mobility, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), computers, and electronic aids to daily living. We also talk through the gait cycle and cover some atypical gait patterns.
