Every individual is unique in size and shape. As such, it is essential to know what equipment features will suit your user’s body type.

A “person of size” includes anyone whose weight or size interferes with their ability to move and function within normal patterns or receive safe, reasonable care.

In this workshop, we’ll explore how to prescribe assistive technology that accommodates various body somatotypes to improve function, safety, and quality of life. We’ll also examine alterations in movement patterns and the psychosocial implications of being a person of size.
