Fact vs Fiction: Wheelchair Wisdom with Justin from WheelieWorx

Fact vs Fiction: Wheelchair Wisdom with Justin from WheelieWorx

🧠 Episode Summary:

In this episode, Parish is joined by Justin from WheelieWorx as they bust common myths about wheelchairs, from the idea that “all wheelchairs are basically the same” to whether power assist makes users “lazy.” Together, they explore the clinical, functional, and human elements of wheelchair prescription, and how important it is for OTs to develop genuine confidence and clarity in their clinical reasoning.

You’ll hear real talk from two OTs with different perspectives and lived experience in the wheelchair space, and why it’s so important we move away from the “tick-a-box” approach to scripting.
