I have used ambutech¡¯s alternative mobility device with many adults, and it sounds like the perfect solution for your client. ?Ha - ?I just spent this afternoon driving to a client to bring his AMD back, I¡¯m attaching a picture I took of him with it 6 years ago, he had returned it because he thought he didn¡¯t need it any more but now thinks he¡¯ll be more confident with it. ¡ª Dona ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Dona Sauerburger, COMS www.sauerburger.org/Dona ¡ª Dona ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Dona Sauerburger, COMS www.sauerburger.org/Dona On May 20, 2023, at 12:35 AM, Dawn Werner <dawnfw@...> wrote:
? Hi,
Does anyone have experience?with someone who's always been blind ?and a cane user who has developed Parkinson's Disease?? O&M skills have gone to pot: shuffles, cane is lethargically moved with an arc of less than 6 inches (usually on the right side), ?time distance awareness is basically non-existent, relies mostly on sighted guide.
What about elderly individuals using Ambutech AMD? ?
??Recommendations, musings and advice are all welcome.
Thanks,
Dawn
