Power Mobility and Safety Concerns
Power mobility enhances participation in daily activities as well as activities for people who are in long-term care. The devices can also pose safety risks, which need to be addressed.
Instead of excluding residents who have certain diagnoses from power mobility option, which may be considered prejudicial risk management, most participants opted to adopt an approach based on teleology and allow all residents to try out the power mobility device.
Mobility
A power mobility device provides an option for those who are unable to move about their home or community and participate in daily activities that they would not be able to do. However, these devices may also be a danger to the person who uses them, and also to other people who are in their space. Occupational therapists should carefully consider the safety requirements of each client prior to making recommendations about powered mobility.
In an exploratory study (von Zweck 1999), OTs from three residential care facilities of the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority conducted qualitative interviews with residents about their power mobility use. The objective was to develop a framework for client-centred power mobility prescribing. The results revealed four major themes: (1) power mobility meaning, (2) learning road rules, (3) red flags security concerns, and (4) solutions.
Power mobility can greatly improve the quality of life for those with limited mobility by allowing them to participate in a variety of everyday life activities, at home as well as in the community (Brandt, 2001; Evans, 2000). Self-care, productive and recreational activities are essential to the physical and mental health of the elderly. For many who suffer from chronic illnesses, power mobility offers a way to participate in these essential activities.
Most participants found it not acceptable to remove the resident's chair since it would result in a significant disruption in their life story or course of action, and ultimately stop them from continuing with the same activities that they used to do prior to the progression of their illness. This was especially true for those in the Facility 1 who were only allowed to use their green power electric scooter chairs for a short period of time and were now dependent on others to push them.
Another solution would be to limit the speed at which residents drive their chairs. However, this could raise several issues, including privacy and the impact on the rest of the community. The most drastic solution to safety concerns was to remove the wheelchair from a resident's.
Safety
Power mobility lets people move more easily. They can also participate in a broader range of activities and run errands. With greater green mobility scooters comes a higher chance of accidents. These accidents could result in serious injuries for certain. It is crucial to consider the security of your clients prior to recommending the use of power mobility.
First check if your client is able to safely operate their power chair or scooter. This may include an assessment of physical health by a doctor greenpower Mobility or occupational therapist, or a mobility specialist, based on the nature of your client's disability and their current health. In some instances, a vehicle lift will be required to allow for your client to load and unload their mobility device at home, in the community or at work.
Learning the rules of road safety is an additional aspect of safety. This includes sharing space with other wheelchair users, pedestrians and the bus drivers. This topic was mentioned by the majority of participants in the study.
Some people learnt to drive their wheelchairs along sidewalks instead of driving through the midst of crowds or on curbs (unless the wheelchair was specifically made for this). For others this meant driving more slow in a crowded area and watching out for people walking.
The final and least popular option that was to take away the wheelchair of a person was seen as a double-punishment that would result in the loss of mobility, and also preventing them from taking part in community and facility activities. This was the opinion of most participants who were able to remove their chairs, including Diane and Harriet.
Other ideas suggested by participants included educating residents staff, family members and other residents on the proper operation of power mobility. This could include teaching the fundamentals of driving (such as using the correct side of a hallway) and encouraging residents to practice driving strategies while out, and helping them to understand how their actions can affect other people's mobility.
Follow-Up
The ability of a child and their willingness to take part in the world can be greatly affected by a power mobility device. Yet there isn't much research on the experiences of children learning to use this equipment. This study uses the post-previous method to analyze the effects of 6 months of using one of the four early mobility devices on a group of school-aged children of children who suffer from severe cerebral palsy (CP).
We conducted interviews in qualitative format with 15 parents as well as occupational and physical therapists who work with children. Thematic analysis revealed three main themes. The first, 'Power in mobility,' explained how the use of a powered device changed more than just motor skills. Learning to drive a mobility device was often an emotional and transformative journey for the participants.
The second theme, 'There's not any cookbook,' revealed that the process of learning to use the power mobility device was an individual process that developed over time in a cyclical manner. Therapists were tasked with unearthing the most appropriate solution for the individual child's needs and abilities. During the training phase and after, therapists had to be patient with children as well as parents. Parents and therapists alike described the need to help families celebrate their successes and resolve issues that arise from the process of training.
Finally, the third theme, 'Shared space', explored the ways in which using an electric device can affect the lives of others and how they interact. The majority of participants in this study believed that it is important to be mindful when using a power device. This is especially important when driving in public spaces. Participants also shared that they had seen situations where property of someone else's had been damaged by the use of a power mobility device or a person had been injured by a driver who didn't yield the right of way.
Overall, the results of this study suggest that short-term socialization and power mobility training is possible for preschoolers with CP in certain classroom settings. The next research study should investigate the training and outcomes for this kind of intervention in young children with CP. This could eventually lead to more standardized training protocols for power mobility children with CP.
