Mobility Devices & Assistive Technology Professional

At Jim’s Pharmacy, we have the expertise and equipment to help you move through the world safely and easily.

Rod Souza is our Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) on staff. The ATP certification recognizes those who have reached an internationally accepted standard of knowledge in assistive technology and who demonstrate a commitment to provide only the highest ethical standards of practice. Achieving certification requires from 1,000 to 6,000 hours of direct consumer related services in Assistive Technology, depending on level of education.

Rod analyzes the needs of individuals with disabilities, assists in the selection of appropriate equipment to resolve mobility and other deficits, and trains consumers on how to properly use assistive equipment. We have a wide variety of equipment offerings, including custom manual wheelchairs, power operated vehicles, and power wheelchairs.

We can help with the prior authorization your insurance company may require for your power mobility device.

Did you know that most insurance companies, including Medicare and Medicaid, now require prior authorization for any kind of power mobility device? Whether you need a standard model 3-wheel scooter or a $20,000 customized power wheelchair, Rod will work with your insurance company to get you the equipment needed to achieve the highest quality of life.
