Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 81 Issue 12 (Décembre 2018) . - p. 671-672 Titre : The International Society of Wheelchair Professionals (ISWP): A resource aiming to improve wheelchair services worldwide Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mary Goldberg ; Jonathan Pearlman ; Paula Rushton ; Rory A. Cooper Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p. 671-672 Note générale : doi.org/10.1177/0308022618793056 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Rehabilitation conferences often have an opening theme of ‘look how far we have come’, but the closing message is ‘look how far we have to go’. This was true for the 2018 European Seating Symposium (EES), in Dublin, Ireland focusing on mobility and postural support devices. ‘Before and after’ pictures of products over the last 30 years suggest that technology has become more available in more contexts, including a recent wave of DIY technology with the ubiquity of 3D printing and scanning tools to produce custom equipment. The impressive evolution of this technology is not the whole story; in practice, many people do not have access, and policy and training efforts related to both service and rehabilitation equipment are often inadequate to ensure users receive appropriate products (MacLachlan et al., 2018).
