Persons with

               Multiple Sclerosis

 

 

   Are you 18-65 years of age and interested in

   participating in a research study about the mobility of people with Multiple Sclerosis?

 

If you participate in this study, we will ask you to:

·        Fill out a questionnaire that asks you questions about how you get around in your daily environments and what type of assistive technology you use, such as canes, walkers, wheelchairs, and scooters.

·        Participate in an assessment by a rehab therapist to evaluate and recommend the best mobility aids for you.

 

By participating in this study you are helping us to:

·     Produce a catalog of major mobility devices with guidelines for their use in MS

·     Identifying mobility devices that might assist persons with MS in the future

       

Participants will receive $25.00

If you are between the ages of 18 and 65 and have MS,
