Program Description

Event Details

In partnership with Staying Put in New Canaan, we welcome Kevin Finn of Accessible Answers, LLC and Jeff Moreira, PT/OT. Kevin will present an overview of the activities of daily living (ADLs), the available equipment, and why it’s needed to make daily living manageable. Jeff will offer physical routines to delay the need for assistive equipment, and address when it’s time for assistance and the recommended equipment. They will also cover interior and exterior navigation, food preparation and dining, bathroom equipment, dressing, transferring and more.
