"[Our #PermobilPowerWheelchairs offer] built-in Bluetooth, which allows a user to use their wheelchair drive control to operate their smartphones. With the advancement of smart home technologies, consumers today can control household appliances (lights, music, thermostats, etc.) through apps or wireless (Bluetooth or WiFi) connection from their smartphones. As the wheelchair can be set up to control the smartphone, this then provides users a degree of environmental control without the need in many cases for a stand-alone, traditional type of Environmental Control Unit. #GlobalAccessibilityAwarenessDay #GAAD Global Accessibility Awareness Day

From #Twitter user @cherryrae: "I often think about how I can’t remember what it’s like to *run* but today I finally took delivery of my wheelchair electric assist!! [...] I feel so FREE! This is INDEPENDENCE. It’s SPEED. It’s JOY... [...] I can climb hills myself! I can go FAST on the flat! I can look forward to less injury, fatigue and weakness. Put this thing in your wheelchair representation! It’s cool! It’s everyday Adaptive technology! It’s even futuristic! It’s one step between full manual and full motorized and it’s compact, compatible with most everyday manual chairs and controlled with a wearable watch." #SmartDrive #TestimonyTuesday #PowerAssist #BeProactive #AssistiveTechnology

Pressure Mapping is one of the tests applied to characterize a cushion. One of the main goals with wheelchair cushion is to provide pressure redistribution. Pressure Mapping uses a mat with sensors to reveal areas of intense pressure when someone is seated or lying down. The mat can also show how best to achieve pressure relief.

Tomorrow is #WorldWidePressureInjuryPreventionDay, and here is a very honest and eye-opening story from Diane about her experience with pressure ulcers. When we did get the break in the skin I thought it would just heal up on its own. I didn’t know pressure sores existed. None of my family had them so if you’re not in the medical word you [don’t know] about these things. #StopPIDay2020 #StopPUDay2020 #WheelchairUsers...

Tomorrow is #WorldWidePressureInjuryPreventionDay, so we wanted to share our 10-part blog series on Wound Care (links to each part are in the photo descriptions). When we talk about wounds caused by pressure, we often only consider the pressure on our bottom. However, pressure can be created by any support surface that comes in contact with the body.

We’re proud that our #SmartActuators in combination with our Independent Repositioning Mode (IRM) feature allow those who have high pressure relief needs to have their wheelchair automatically go through a pre-programmed sequence into the perfect position with use of a single switch or button whenever and wherever they are! Pressure injuries usually occur over bony prominences as a result of pressure in combination with shear forces. Individuals with mobility impairments are ...especially at risk, so wheelchairs that incorporate tilt-in-space and recline functions are routinely prescribed to redistribute pressure away from their ischial tuberosities (sitting bones). Want to know how to get the most out of your IRM?

Today my life has completely changed because of the invaluable feature of standing. I have never again had any pressure issues or any skin problems after having the standing feature on the Permobil F5 VS. The benefits that come with standing are so many to list that it baffles me to know that this still is not the minimum that should be offered to every person in a power wheelchair. #TestimonialTuesday #WorldWidePressureInjuryPreventionDay #StopPIDay2020 #StopPUDay2020 #Per...mobilPowerUser National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel Wounds Canada https://bit.ly/35xgw3K

"Spina Bifida literally means split spine. Spina Bifida happens when a baby is in the womb and the spinal column does not close all of the way. This happens within the first four weeks of pregnancy. About 120 children are born with spina bifida every year in Canada.

Spina bifida is a condition that affects the spine and is usually apparent at birth. It is a type of neural tube defect. Spina bifida can happen anywhere along the spine if the neural tube does not close all the way. When the neural tube doesn’t close all the way, the backbone that protects the spinal cord doesn’t form and close as it should. This often results in damage to the spinal cord and nerves. Spina bifida might cause physical and intellectual disabilities that range ...from mild to severe. The severity depends on: The size and location of the opening in the spine. Whether part of the spinal cord and nerves are affected.

"I have always been an INCREDIBLY independent person. Ask anyone who's known me for awhile. Once my illness hit, I slowly lost much of my independence. It was extremely painful. Once it got to the point where I needed a wheelchair, I was crushed. Until I realized something. Using mobility aids- forearm crutches, a cane, power chair, wheelchair, etc.- isn't an indication of how helpless you are. They give you freedom! Using a mobility aid doesn't make you less capable, it give...s you the ability to do more than you'd ever be able to otherwise! I personally only use a wheelchair at this point, and for anyone who's curious, it's a #TiLite TRA with Ride Mobility back. I have a #SmartDrive as well. So to anyone who's battling their body and mind over needing to rely or even occasionally use mobility aids, remember they're not an indication of failure, a lack of strength, or helplessness. They're there to give you a little independence back and help you live life to the fullest!" - Faith Anne (https://bit.ly/37mCLdF) #MotivationalMonday #TiLiteUser #TiLiteTRA Check out the TRA here: https://permobil.ca/product/tra/
