My work as a data analyst for a health insurance administrator and my work blogging has really opened my eyes to some of the realities of living as a disabled person. Even in the 21st century a lot has changed but sadly somethings stay the same. I know a couple of disabled bloggers, one of whom owns a consulting firm that advises on disability access. Listening to some of his challenges and the obstacles he helps others avoid, I become very aware of how the smallest of detail we take for granted could become a nightmare for a disabled person.

Freedom for all

Being able to operate a car affords us a certain freedom, gives us independance and the freedom to take opportunities otherwise unavailable to us. For many disabled and elderly persons, finding a mobility solution for their vehicle is a difficult, costly and potentially physically harmful decision.

No two people with a disability are exactly the same, each person has different requirements and specific ergonomic or medical needs. For a lot of disabled persons, sadly there is not enough information available. Adapted vehicles advertised on the internet or in catalogs are very dangerous propositions due to their generic fit. Only after an in-depth one on one assessment with trained professionals in the area of rehabilitation and driving solution manufacture, can you have the peace of mind that you will get a driving solution tailored to your needs based on your personality and lifestyle. NMEDA is the National Mobility Equipment Association helps provide some peace of mind while providing safe, reliable vehicles and modifications to enhance accessibility for all people. NMEDA is a non-profit trade association. NMEDA exists purely in order to standardize quality systems in the industry and provide peace of mind when customers purchase from NMEDA dealers. NMEDA dealers sell handicap vans and vehicle modifications for disabled people and are required to adhere to the safety standards of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
