Christina and Cindy, co-founders of the Adaptive Equipment and Caregiving Corner, started their YouTube channel in 2015 and turned it into a business in 2020.
Their inspiration for starting the channel was to address frequently asked questions they received as therapists in home health.
They wanted to provide caregivers and patients with videos that could be used as educational tools.
They started by housing the videos on YouTube and eventually developed a platform with subscription videos.
Adaptive equipment has transformed the lives of individuals by providing simple solutions, such as a tubular sliding sheet, that make caregiving tasks easier.
Starting a YouTube channel came with challenges, including building a subscriber base and managing expectations.
Audience engagement is important, and Christina and Cindy engage with their audience through various social media platforms.
They value feedback and use it to improve their content. They have also created a seal of approval for products that meet their criteria of improving functional independence, being worth the cost, and having reliable customer service.
Adaptive Equipment Corner is a YouTube channel and website that provides information and reviews on adaptive equipment for caregivers and older adults.
They work with small companies and give feedback on their products to ensure they meet the needs of their viewers.
They also travel to senior centers to give presentations and allow people to try out the products.
One example of their impact is a video on using crutches on stairs, which helped someone struggling with mobility.
The hosts emphasize the importance of caregivers taking care of themselves and finding support in their caregiving journey.
