    Assistive Tech That Supports Disabled Lives

    Meet Angela Standridge, Director of the Texas Technology Access Program (TTAP) at the University of Texas. The program helps people with disabilities get access to assistive technology so they can live more independently. What is Assistive Technology (AT)? is any device, equipment, software program, or product that helps a person with a disability improve or maintain their ability to function. TTAP makes these tools easy to find and use. They not only have a library of available devices but also provide product demonstrations, 35-day loaner devices, recycled equipment, and information about national loan programs. Angela explains that the tool itself is not the full solution—the real solution is how the person uses it in their own environment to meet their specific needs.  Listen in and find out how this amazing program allows those of us with disabilities to live a more independent life.

    Olympic Bobsledder to CTE Advocate

    Imagine traveling down a sheet of ice at 90mph when your bobsled flips over and you slam your head into the ice wall. Meet William Person, 9 year member of the US Olympic bobsledding team. Join us as he shares his journey from college track and field, mental health advocate, member of the US Olympic bobsledding team to brain injury survivor and advocate. He saw first hand how untreated brain injuries devastate not only athletes but also military veterans and their families. William spent years in agony due to his repeated concussions. He only found relief when he began Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. His message is simple, “If your loved one is doing something that’s out of the norm, get them checked out!” Individuals with CTEs do not see how their behavior impacts those around them. Loved ones do.  Guest Social Media Info -  https://www.instagram.com/willp1234567?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr# https://www.facebook.com/william.person.792233/  https://www.facebook.com/one.man.with.a.chamber.hbot  Send us Fan Mail Support the show You can find this episode’s transcript here.

    Injuries to the brain can impact our lives in so many different ways. Meet Dr. Collin Cooper, an Occupational Therapist specializing in stroke and brain injuries as well as hand therapy for PAM Health in Allen, TX. Learn how Dr. Cooper utilizes vagus nerve stimulation along with traditional and hand therapies to help ischemic stroke survivors improve their upper limb function. By implanting a small generator, specifically Vivistim, in the left chest and attaching a lead to the vagus nerve in the neck, stroke survivors learn how to regain arm function.
