Not all adaptive equipment is created equal. In this episode, occupational therapists Brandy and Emilia reveal the worst products they see clients wasting money on—like walk-in tubs, suction cup grab bars, and certain lift chairs.These pieces are often sold as “solutions” but can actually lead to increased risk, cost, and frustration.
