Residents of the Albury-Wodonga region are being asked to give feedback on a new device used to assess feet for developing orthotics for inside shoes. Final year podiatry Honours student with Charles Sturt University’s (CSU) School of Community Health, Ms Romany Vonarx, is assessing the accuracy of the device, developed in Melbourne. “The device aims to make orthotic prescription more consistent and save patients money. We want to see if it actually does what it says,” said Ms Vonarx, who is looking for 60 people aged 18 or older from the Border region to take part in her study. The investigation, which runs from Monday 29 October for three months, will be carried out at the University’s Allied Health Clinic, corner Olive and Guinea Streets, Albury. To take part in the project, contact Ms Vonarx via email or telephone the CSU clinic on (02) 6051 9299.
