Ability Center, a renowned provider of mobility equipment and wheelchair vans, welcomes student from Touro University to a full tour of their facility, including wheelchair lifts and handicap vans.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) October 18, 2011
Touro University is well known for providing quality education in osteopathic medicine. A group of 30 students studying to become physical therapists took part in the tour, which was a great success. The students were broken up into three separate groups to make things more manageable. Scott Santos showed the tour groups the wheelchair vans, while Joe Spallino covered vehicle wheelchair lifts, stair lifts and more. Tyler Donat from Invacare highlighted wheelchairs and cushions.
The tour was an incredible success, and the students learned a great deal about real world applications of technology for individuals with physical handicaps. In, fact, the tour was such a success that Ability Center has decided to continue it each semester for a different group of students from Touro University.
Scott Santos, Ability Center Las Vegas says, “We always like to contribute towards educating new students about our products and services. This will help them as they begin in the workforce to have the knowledge of the products available in the community. We plan on hosting this event with each new set of students going through the program at Touro University.”
Tricia Catalino, Assistant Professor at Touro University sent this note to Ability Center regarding the tour, “Thank you for the excellent tour and education session this morning. The experience was even more than what I had hoped for and I do look forward to the next round of students to take part in this experience. The feedback from the students was excellent and I have already passed your information along to our faculty who cover adult rehabilitation. Your services allow people with disabilities to participate in the activities they choose in the environments they want. Thank you for this! I know the students appreciated this too.”
