Van Entry
Steps
| Challenge: |
The client has Cerebral Palsy, is not tall and
walks with crutches. She has difficulty entering and exiting a van
on either side. |
| Solution: |
A lightweight wooden step device was made to assist
the client in and out of the van. When the client is a passenger,
someone will load the steps in the van for her, and when driving
alone she will be able to load and unload the steps herself using
canes as hooks. Three low step risers were used, as the client has
difficulty with standard height risers. |
