Temporary Footplate Support
Project #2024-072
Client need
The teenaged client plays power hockey in his power wheelchair. He needed a temporary support to prevent his foot plate from being folded with contact with other chairs. An L shaped metal piece that can be inserted onto his foot plates is suggested.
What was built
A metal piece that fit onto his wheelchair foot plate in a length preventing collision with other chairs.
How it helped
The client can now play power hockey and not worry about his feet or wheelchair foot plate getting damaged. He is now freer to play like an NHL-er!
