Guided Hands® Stories
Bea | Retired Nurse with Essential Tremor and Dementia
“I think it's a necessity for those of us with limited hand mobility. It helps you glide through the writing process. I could just put my hand in, strap in and start! It gives you confidence and would recommend it in a heartbeat!”
Watch her full testimony:
Dr. Mark Tarnopolsky | Neurologist and Division Head of Neuromuscular and Neurometabolic Disorders at McMaster Children's Hospital, Hamilton Health Sciences
“Our patient, a 12-year-old girl with severe dystonia, derived real benefit and clear joy from the use of Guided Hands®.”
Joe Walters | Director at On With Life, Iowa's Neuro Rehabilitation Centre
“Guided Hands® is a great tool for assisting those with hand and arm impairments to write and draw again. In brain injury recovery, it means so much to individuals to get back to activities they enjoy. Guided Hands® is easy to adapt to an individual and assists them in a wide range of activities.”
Kim | Pediatric Occupational Therapist in Ottawa
“I have a 14 year old patient with a rare genetic disorder that causes progressive weakness. He is usually in supine position and in a wheelchair. He was having a hard time finding arm support - so Guided Hands® worked really well for him! It was the best access he has ever had and finally gave him a form of communication.”
Carmelo | Gentleman with Arthritis
“Guided Hands® helped me write a birthday card for my granddaughter. Writing a short note like that means everything to me.”
Sam | An 18-Year-Old Student Recovering from a C6 Spinal Cord Injury
“As soon as I had my injury I couldn’t use my hands well at all. When I had to leave the hospital I had to sign so many papers but I couldn’t write! If this device was available right when I began rehabilitation it would’ve helped me so much. Great device, definitely makes rehabilitation more fun and easier!”
Julie | Pediatric Occupational Therapist in Ottawa
“I used Guided Hands® to detect any sort of nerve flickering in his biceps muscle to determine if the nerve transfer surgery was successful or not. But not only was I able to use it as a treatment device, he was able to draw a picture to hang on his wall. I will certainly be using Guided Hands® with my client again at his next appointment.”
Geoff Using Guided Hands ®
ImaginAble Solutions and the Post 21 team are seen celebrating Geoff’s adorable victory playing Wordscapes with Guided Hands®! Within seconds, he was able to use Guided Hands® to express himself, which is very important because he has Cerebral Palsy and is non-verbal.
