Has anyone ever met any "industry insider", repair shop, sales people, or Physio or Occupational therapist that actually had ANY clue about powerchairs and wheelchairs?
Lets make a list!
It will be useful to those that cant help themselves as much as some of us do.
I will start. Err, Only 1. After 14 years of looking! Everyone else just seems to cause problems and not be interested. I am still waiting for the UKs Wheelchair Services to "get back to me" for eg regarding them assessing me for a cushion that they already supplied me 3 months ago after I shouted loudly! They have to be the single most useless people in the entire system! They couldnt service a manual wheelchair and get it right and talk about slow. But its the staff and their attitude thats the biggest problem. More importantly what the hell do you do about it?
1. A tech guy at Penny and Giles... (They seemed rather less knowledgable at dynamic. But at least they do FIND OUT and get back to you so thats 2 really!)
