U.S. Rehab Offers Live Tech Training and New ATP Training in 2025

U.S. Rehab is excited to continue hosting in-person live Tech Training sessions in 2025. In addition, an option for ATP Gateway Training will be offered for experienced technicians interested in becoming certified ATPs. 

Live Tech Training 

Live Tech Training provides wheelchair repair technicians with education and hands-on experience with both manual and power wheelchairs. These sessions are led by technical trainers from key vendor partners.

Tech Training sessions for U.S. Rehab and VGM members offer both basic and advanced tracks on various CRT equipment repair strategies, troubleshooting, and programming. Attendees will enhance their skills on specific CRT products and learn how to improve efficiency, accuracy, and customer service. This leads to faster repairs, fewer field visits, lower costs, and higher productivity. The benefits also include minimized errors, reducing patient downtime, and increasing satisfaction levels among referral sources and patients. Additionally, sessions cover proper repair documentation for maximum insurance reimbursement. 

These sessions enhance skills in adaptive seating, mobility seating, power chair assessment, wheelchair seating services, and mobility evaluation. Well-trained technicians can improve service delivery, positively impact assistive technology, and contribute to better patient outcomes.
