We’re thrilled to announce that Easterseals Bluegrass has achieved a new milestone: we have been named a “Bioness Clinic of Excellence”, a distinction that underscores our leadership in innovative pediatric rehabilitation.
In doing so, we have also become the only pediatric clinic in the region to offer three groundbreaking Bioness systems: the Vector Gait & Safety System, the L300 Go, and the H200 Wireless. This is a monumental step forward for the families we serve and the broader Lexington community.
Harnessing Next-Level Mobility & Independence
- Vector Gait & Safety System
This advanced system uses dynamic body weight support to help patients begin gait training sooner and more safely. By unloading just enough body weight, it allows for natural walking motions and real-world movement scenarios during recovery, reducing fall risk and improving outcomes. - L300 Go
The L300 Go delivers functional electrical stimulation (FS) to assist those experiencing foot drop or leg muscle weakness. It helps patients lift their foot more naturally while walking on level ground, stairs, or ramps and supports muscle re-education, increased range of motion, and improved blood flow. - H200 Wireless
Designed for hand and forearm rehabilitation, the H200 Wireless system delivers FES to activate neural pathways and muscles. It restores vital hand functions like grasping and opening, while reducing muscle atrophy and improving circulation.
Why This Matters for Easterseals Bluegrass Families
As a pediatric-focused center, we’re constantly striving to bring therapies that are not only effective but also accessible and adaptable for kids and families. By offering these systems, we can provide children with more dynamic, personalized, and effective rehabilitation experiences, all in a child-friendly environment. These tools help young patients develop motor skills, independence, and confidence in ways that traditional therapy alone can’t match.
Looking Ahead
We’re excited for what lies ahead. These technologies will become integral parts of our therapy programming, empowering children to reach new milestones, explore movement, and engage more fully with the world around them.
We invite families, caregivers, and medical partners to reach out if you’d like to learn more or explore how these systems can fit your child’s rehabilitation plan.
Thank you to all of our community partners and supporters who made this advancement possible. We were able to acquire the technology thanks to the funds raised during the 2024 BASH, a true testament to how our mission shines with your generosity.
