Physical disabilities
Variation in the nature and severity of physical disabilities is huge. Problems can range from minor limitations affecting one part of the body to severe and generalised ones. Some conditions will improve over time, some will deteriorate and some will remain relatively static. Accordingly, equipment options are diverse. This can make selection of aids for an individual very difficult and formal assessment will often be required.
