Sleeping in a Riser Recliner: Reducing risks and supporting independence
Following the success of the previous sessions led by Jenny Rolfe and Sarah Thompson, this interactive webinar will take a deeper dive into the reasons why individuals may choose to sleep in riser recliner chairs- and the potential risks associated with this practice.
Through activity analysis and case studies, we will examine alternative interventions and equipment, including the FloorBed and our award-winning innovation product the Ascenda, which can offer safer, more supportive solutions. The session will also provide practical strategies to help practitioners discuss and address these risks while supporting clients to maintain their independence and quality of life.
Customised Equipment- Making Things Possible
This session will provide an overview of REMAP, a national charity that has been making and adapting equipment to meet the unique needs of individuals at no cost to them. The variety and complexity of equipment provided is wide-ranging and limited only by the creativity and skills of its volunteer engineers. The equipment created is explicitly designed for the client.
Sharing case studies, we will showcase the life span of REMAP’s service and explore how your professional curiosity can help clients achieve much more. We will discuss what can be achieved and how to consider the language we use as occupational therapists when working with the engineer. We will explore how you can influence commercial manufacturers to design accessible and cognitive infusion products.
