My power chair is finally here! After five-plus months. Delays in getting appt at the wc clinic, delays in coordinating from the wc clinic to the provider, meanwhile my hands tanked so the joystick control originally specified wouldn't work, so I had to be reevaluated, ad the revised chair reordered.
At the second evaluation, the wc clinic OT, the provider rep, and the manufacturers rep were all there, and it made a huge difference. Te Invacare rep suggested several tweaks that improved the design considerably.
Now I just need to practice with the head controls- a bit tricky in our old farmhouse with 30" doorways! But I'm thrilled to finally have it.
