CGH Earth Hotels have been one of the generous sponsors of our workshop your through India. On checking into their hotel in Cochin we discovered that there was no grab bar next to the toilet. By the time I returned from dinner an hour or so later on had been installed. Then I noticed that my grip has deteriorated so much that I can no longer use spherical door openers. Returning from a meeting I discovered they had solved that issue as well.
Sometimes the eagerness to please that I encounter in India has the unitended effect of leaving me feel mobbed. Other times it leaves me with the frightened observation that those manhandling my wheelchair (with me in it) have no training whatsoever in working with wheelchairs or protecting themselves from injury when lifting.
The common element is that these "helpers" do not listen.
The staff at CGH Earth's Casino hotel listen. That makes all the difference in the world.
