"When I’m talking to an employer about a prospective candidate, I feel like I’m taken more seriously because I don’t have to look up at them

Monica

When I was 21 years old, I was diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis. This neurological disorder caused inflammation in my spinal cord and rendered me a paraplegic. For the past 20 years, I’ve used various standard wheelchairs that have sapped me of my energy and independence.

Now though, I’m living much more independently thanks to my iBOT® Mobility System.

I work as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, helping young adults with

disabilities find employment. The iBOT® has made a tremendous impact on my career.
 

One day, I attended a meeting with a prospective employer for one of my clients and could not find handicapped parking. So, I ended up parking far from the building and right next to a curb. When I exited my vehicle, I noticed I was right on the edge of the curb. In a standard wheelchair, I would have never been able to negotiate an obstacle like that. But the 4-Wheel Function of the device allowed me to breeze right over it and got me into the meeting with time to spare.

Another great aspect of using the iBOT® in the workplace is that it lets me be eye-to-eye, both figuratively and literally, with individuals who are standing. When I’m talking to an employer about a prospective candidate, I feel like I’m taken more seriously because I don’t have to look up at them.

I truly believe that the iBOT® has significantly enhanced my credibility and has made me a better advocate for people with disabilities.
