More Details

* The Rejoy positions the joystick directly in the user's line of sight and enables the user to maintain a symmetrical posture when driving
* Pressure-relieving gel armpads on either side of the joystick enable more natural arm positioning
* The unit controls the steering and speed of the wheelchair
* Centre mounted drive controls give a more natural driver experience, allowing the more involved user to maintain a better posture than when using an armrest mounted control
* The spring loaded drop in connection fits into a socket. It can be removed for transfers. The connections have contacts made of gold so that they are resistant to corrosion and humidity
* Multiple sockets can be installed on the same wheelchair

Mounting positions
Rejoy can be mounted in three positions
* In front of the seat on the centre line. When positioned in front, the socket is at the same level of the seat so it will not impede transfers. The mast is placed in the socket so that the joystick is just in front of the user on the centre line of the chair
* On the side beneath either armrest. When mounted on the side, the mast with the controller can be placed there to facilitate transfers or better access to desks and tables. The wheelchair can be moved short distances while the mast is in a side socket
* On the back of the wheelchair. When a socket is mounted on the rear of the chair, the controller can be used by an attendant to control the wheelchair

Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). You can ask the supplier for the ARTG number for the device you wish to purchase and search the ARTG for the entry. To access information on the ARTG visit www.tga.gov.au
