4WD options are pretty limited when it comes to travelling seated in a wheelchair. It is not cheap, but a Toyota Hiace can undergo a 4WD conversion as pictured here during a recent remote outreach trip #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis #toyotahiace

The challenge was to improve pressure care without straying away from the user’s preferred cushion design. So we replicated the original foam cushion with the addition of a cut-out for a high profile ROHO insert #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis

“In pool noodle we trust” We were put on the spot to increase the lateral trunk support on this Magic Mobility X8. After a quick scan of the client’s backyard we had it solved with a pool noodle and a pair of scissors #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis

When adjusting the rear seat height of a manual wheelchair it is important to check and adjust the castor stem so that it remains perpendicular to the floor. In this case, Motion Composites have done a nice job of adding a mini spirit level to assist when adjusting their Apex model #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis

Power wheelchairs can get pretty busy with cables and hardware. In this example the chair was losing power due to a stray cable getting caught and unplugged each time the seat was tilted. After locating the fault, re-routing the cable and the addition of a simple cable tie, everything could move free of obstacles and with power intact #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis #boundlesspossible

a back-to-front cushion (cover removed for demonstration) was the primary cause for this client’s poor sitting posture. Following some adjustments, the addition of an anterior wedge and some user training the client was left sitting more upright and about a foot taller #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis

Over the years our sector has produced some amazing things locally. The M1 Roller was manufactured in Adelaide by Rollerchair, at a guess, production of the M1 stopped over 10 years ago. If ever a wheelchair had the most loyal of customers, this was it. I have met a number of clients over the years that have prioritised keeping their old M1 going over anything else. Recently, I came across another one, still going strong and not a negative word was said. #assistivetechnology #occupationaltherapy #ndis
