Send us Fan MailIn 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.- Connect with us on social media to share your thoughts about this episode.     Instagram: @21stcenturydisabilityFacebook: Twenty-First Century DisabilityBluesky: @21centdisability.bsky.socialTikTok: @21stcenturydisabilityLinkedIn: Hollis Peirce- Use the hashtag #21stCenturyDisability to join the discussion online.Subscribe to our newsletter for updates on upcoming episodes and events by clicking here: https://www.21stcenturydisability.com/contact!
