Assistive Devices

To provide better mobility, AKi has developed specific innovative equipment for home use for a variety of issues and we have the facility in the clinic to manufacture aids of our own design. We have our own workshop where all the aids are prepared and modified according to the need of the child.

Postural Aids

Our staff is trained in the ‘World Health Organization (WHO) Intermediate level wheelchair provision’ for posturally challenged children. Our clinicians and technicians work together to provide the best solution for each child and our skilled, locally trained carpenters create and customize the assistive devices, hence ensuring cost-effective and efficient patient care.
