Question Where can I purchase special, everyday devices and quipments for a person with Spinal Cord Injury(levelC4), that could help him do things on his own?
Answer Magda,
Most equipment designed for a person with a spinal cord injury is considered a medical product by the Food and Drug Administration and would need to be prescribed by a doctor or other health professional. I would suggest working through a doctor or physical therapist to identify the appropriate devices. They will also have catalogs of products that may not need a prescription.
You could also check to see if there is a spinal cord injury support group that may be of more help.
