National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week 1-7 August
National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week 1-7 August
Cerebral Palsy affects the way the brain controls muscles in the body, which may cause muscle paralysis, loss of sensation and uncontrollable body movements.
1-7 August 2010 is National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week, which aims to raise awareness and celebrate the achievements of people living with cerebral palsy.
Tunstall Healthcare assists people living with cerebral palsy by helping them to maintain their independence in the home.
Assistive technology solutions tailored to individual needs can help someone to make quick and easy access to a 24 hour response centre, where the necessary help can be organised.
Assistive technology can also notify a response centre, carer or family member if the resident falls, fails to get out of bed in the morning, or is not active in the home on a particular day.
Tunstall invests 5% of it’s annual turnover into research and development, allowing it to continue creating assistive technology solutions for people with conditions like cerebral palsy.
