“TEXAS REHAB TODAY GOES LIVE”

This is the inaugural post to “Texas Rehab Today”. There will be no balloons, no bands; no buffet luncheon; and no headline news, just frank discussion about the challenges, opportunities, and in some cases even the silliness of what the rehab technology supplier must do on a daily basis simply to try and make a reasonable living in a professional manner. For those who may not be familiar with the rehab technology supplier industry, the business of a rehab technology supplier, in its simplest form, is the design, sale, and fitting of mobility (wheelchairs) and seated positioning equipment (the cushions, pads, straps, braces, and other similar components that might be added to a wheelchair) to those among us who by virtue of illness, accidental injury, or otherwise need these enabling pieces of equipment to facilitate a quality of life most of us who do not need such equipment take for granted..

Over the days and weeks ahead my hope is that “Texas Rehab Today” will provide a forum to identify needs, shed light on problems, explore possible solutions, and in so doing serve to enhance the quality of products and services offered, the financial stability of suppliers, and the professionalism by which the rehab technology supplier industry operates.
