Donated Segways may help disabled vets get back on feet
December 5th, 2007From USA Today:
Charitable group Segs4Vets is giving away Segway electric scooters to disabled veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The idea is to give the veterans greater mobility. But Segways are not approved as a medical device, and the Department of Veterans affairs has yet to offer an opinion on their therapeutic value. Some question whether the Segways will slow recovery if recipients overuse the devices.
