[Aid for physically handicapped children: 5-year experience with a collection facility].
The experience made over five years of operating a collection scheme for second-hand technical aids are described. Affiliation with a pediatric centre has provided opportunity for the child trying out the aid envisaged, and for evaluation by doctor and therapist prior to aid re-prescription. The main principles to be observed in aid provision are stated. Present organizational and financial problems are described, which, however, are considered secondary to the scheme's usefulness, not least in view of cost savings.
