Webinar: Assistive technology for lower limb amputees – more than just a prosthesis

Hosted by Medical Aids Subsidy Scheme

While prostheses are frequently a focus for lower limb amputees, people can benefit from a far broader range of assistive technologies. We take a deep dive into mobility aids (such as wheelchairs) and daily living aids, and specific adjustments and accessories for people with lower limb amputation. We note that other technologies such as home modifications, home automation and workplace accommodations can be of assistance and where to learn more about these.

Target group

• prosthetists
• occupational therapists
• physiotherapists
• rehabilitation engineers

• students in the above professions

All webinars will be presented using Microsoft Teams. Please be aware that all webinars are recorded. Links to webinar recordings will be sent to registrants. Microsoft Teams currently supports the following browsers: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
