From September 25 – 28, 2024, REHACARE 2024, International Trade Fair for Rehabilitation and Care, will take place at the fairgrounds in Düsseldorf, Germany. The event will again have strong international participation with prominent exhibits such as Ottobock, Sunrise Medical, Invacare, Meyra, Permobil, Etac, Rewalk and Paravan. All relevant international players of the assistive technology industry will be represented and provide fresh impulses, present innovations and establish valuable networks.
As a pioneering forum for progress and inclusion, REHACARE 2024 will bring together a unique community: people with disabilities, their families and caregivers as well as key stakeholders – from political decision-makers and service providers to associations, manufacturers and specialist medical supply retailers. Together, they will set political priorities, promote contacts and experience how innovations revolutionize the design of medical aids. New this year will be the participation of the German UNESCO Commission, which is driving barrier-free solutions in Germany.
From innovative mobility aids, nursing care and therapy services to sports and leisure activities for people with disabilities – REHACARE will showcase the versatile possibilities for leading a self-determined life.
New impulses for the medical supply and orthopedic technology sectors
In close cooperation with the trade magazine “Gesundheitsprofi”, REHACARE will present the forum program “Sanitätshaus 2030” for the first time. This program is tailored specifically to the needs of medical supply retailers and will provide in-depth insights into new business areas as well as effective upselling strategies for technology products and expert advice to customers.
“We are delighted to welcome the trade magazine “Gesundheitsprofi” as a new partner for the first time. As part of the “Sanitätshaus 2030” program of forums we will jointly present innovative concepts and progressive marketing strategies for specialist retailers. Together with our proven partners such as the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, for example, DGUV – the German Statutory Accident Insurance, BAG SELBSTHILFE e.V – (Federal Working Group of Self-Help Organizations for People with Disabilities, Chronic Diseases and their Relatives), as well as rehaKIND (the children’s rehabilitation network) we strengthen our on-going commitment for an inclusive society,” explained Hannes Niemann, Director of REHACARE.
Technology and sports as drivers of inclusion
The Sport Center organized by BRSNW e.V. (the North Rhine-Westphalia Disabled and Rehabilitation Sports Association) will also invite visitors to experience inclusion through active participation in sports such as sailing, paragolfing, climbing and skiing.
Forums and interactive events
The trade fair will also focus on technological innovations and best practices this year, thereby also providing a platform for knowledge transfer and dynamic discussions. In the PRODUCTS & NEWS @REHACARE area, which is coordinated by the digital guidebook magazine MOBITIPP, participants can look forward to practice-oriented workshops and short lectures as well as moderated panel discussions on topics such as adaptive fashion and customer advice in the health sector.
On September 28, a comprehensive program will be presented with expert tips, therapy options and experience reports such as the session “Our Travel Highlights – Tips and Experiences from Two Travelers”, who will share their rail and air travel experiences.
