Welcome to Steve Wiseman Associates Ltd
Rehabilitation and Participation through Technology
COVID-19 Statement:
We are keeping a close watch on the guidance given by Public Health England regarding COVID-19, in particular that around protecting older and vulnerable people. Please be assured that our clients’ health and wellbeing is of the highest priority to us and we will ensure that we follow all advised measures.
As a result of the guidance, we are adapting the way we work and are providing, where possible, remote assessments and rehabilitation sessions so we can continue to support our vulnerable clients. We aim to reduce social isolation as much as possible and reduce the need to delay rehabilitation.
At Steve Wiseman Associates, we are well placed to support our clients and colleagues in this respect as we have been using this kind of technology for a while now. Check out a recent case study as an example of how we have been continuing with rehabilitation remotely.
We can currently offer: –
- Remote assessment of those with disabilities to recommend assistive technology
- Remote assistance with setting up computer equipment using TeamViewer (dependent on internet connection).
- Advice and guidance by phone/Skype/Zoom
- Setting up and recording of meetings using Zoom Pro
If you are not using, are unfamiliar with, or lack confidence in technology and need support in setting up remote ways of working we can also help. We have a broad knowledge of the different remote platforms available and can help you decide what would work best for you and your team. We can also help manage any uncertainties you may have with using video technology as a way of working.
If you want to discuss how technology can be used to facilitate the rehabilitation process, please contact us.
If the Covid-19 has had an impact on your wellbeing, the mental health charity, Mind, has a range of resources to help at this difficult time.
Our Mission...
…at Steve Wiseman Associates is to find ways of getting technology to work for those with a wide range of disabilities. It may be that mainstream tech, such as the Amazon Echo will be the answer, or something more bespoke may be required. Either way we can advise and support.
