In this episode of Twenty-First Century Disability, we take a deep dive into the world of occupational therapy. Amanda Sutherland, who is my occupational therapist here at Saint Vincent Bruyère, helps us to understand just how complicated a process it is to purchase a new chair for any patient. As an example we discuss just how many bumps we have had to overcome to get me in my new wheelchair.
