Enable Ireland SeatTech

The Custom Posture & Mobility service is provided by a team of clinical and technical staff from the Enable Ireland campus located in Sandymount, Dublin, and on an outreach basis to centres in the Eastern Region and Kerry. We also work in partnership with service providers from other Enable Ireland centres and with the Community Occupational Therapy Services in the Health Service Executive in order to provide a high quality service.

Services we provide:

• An Assessment and Equipment Provision Service
  The focus is on the prescription and provision of seating, night positioning and seated mobility equipment such as buggies and wheelchairs. 
• A Custom Design and Manufacturing Facility
  We can design and manufacture supports for sitting and lying and modify or configure ‘off the shelf’ equipment such as cushions, buggies and wheelchairs.   
• A maintenance and repair service
  Maintenance and repair is provide for our own manufactured products. We provide an aftercare service for our products
• A Training and Information service
  Training is provided on an individual basis as part of service delivery and to groups on specific areas of interest.
• Research and Development 
  Current project work includes wheelchair and occupant crash testing and analysis of the components and constituent materials used in the manufacture of our seating systems. These are collaborative projects working with the engineering departments of Trinity College Dublin and the Dublin Institute of Technology.  
  
  We are also surveying people who attend the service to find out how the service could be improved.
