Telephone Mount

Challenge:

Ellen has no upper or lower motor function and was unable to independently answer or place telephone calls.

Solution:

The gooseneck is a flexible casing (used for cameras) which  was mounted on one end of Ellen’s wheelchair and the  telephone is now placed directly in front of her allowing her to independently dial the phone using a mouth stick and a headset for speaking and listening. The phone can be  removed for recharging with velcro tabs which attaches the phone to the gooseneck.
