Assistive Devices and Wheelchair Services Management

Access to appropriate wheelchairs and assistive devices transforms lives, but services are often poorly organised and under resourced. This course helps managers set up assessment, fitting, provision and follow up services for assistive devices in African health and rehabilitation settings. Participants focus on matching devices to needs, managing stock and building sustainable provision pathways.
