When recommending a power wheelchair, a number of features must be considered such as driving method, seating, and drive wheel configuration. Before picking out colors, however, we first need to determine if the client is truly ready for a power wheelchair and, if not, develop readiness. This webinar will present strategies to determine readiness.

Learning Objectives:
  1. The participant will be able to describe motor skills required to operate a power wheelchair.
  2. The participant will be able to describe strategies to assess cause and effect and directional concepts.
  3. The participant will be able to describe strategies to assess stop and go concepts and problem-solving.
