Greetings!
Congratulations to Lauren Wolfe, Meredith MacKinnon, Karen Barclay, Fabiola Varona and Ingrid Verduyn for an excellent one-day Wound Prevention Conference. Sold out within hours of the registration opening, it was an excellent use of a day if you were fortunate enough to attend. Below are some 5 Point Take Aways from 3 of the sessions.
Spring has us thinking about scooters. Our product feature is the new Pegasus scooter from Invacare. Get ready to test your driving skills with our new products at our Scooters on the Bus lunch & learn. Gain an appreciation of what is required for someone to get onto the entry level buses.
There are lots of opportunities for education over the month of April. Check them out.
We look forward to providing you with useful information throughout the year. Please contact us at any time if you have any comments, questions or topics you want covered by an inservice by emailing kim.mackie@selfcarehome.com. |
Joining the Leo which was introduced last year, the Pegasus is a good mid sized scooter available in a 3 or 4 wheel version that provides lots of benefits with a reasonable price.
The Scooters on the Bus session will begin with a comparison of the new Invacare scooter line to current products on the market, focusing on those suitable for the bus or handyDART. The second half will involve driving the scooters onto the bus. We encourage any therapist who has not tried driving a scooter onto a bus to experience first hand what their clients will encounter.
