10/18 Status Update

The group has been conducting several onsite visits and interview over the past month.

  • October 3 – Visit Sunrise of Dublin
  • October 7 – Follow up visit at Sunrise of Dublin
  • October 10 – Interview with Dr. DiGiovine and AT Center tour
  • October 10 – Visit to Darby Glen
  • October 17 – Visit to Ohio Living Westminster-Thurber; meet with physical therapists on staff

Our next steps are to:

  • Contact suppliers – potentially shadow during in-home consultation
    • Heard back from NuMotion contact who is eager to set up a time for us to shadow
  • Continue visits to nursing homes
  • Continue independent research
    • Look into legal restrictions and financial/logistical barriers
  • Narrow our focus to pinpoint areas for design opportunities
