Power wheelchairs are the perfect choice for easily maneuvering indoors. A power chair plugs in for an overnight recharge, feature four or six wheels for stability and safety, and are adjustable for your riding comfort. Ability Center features quality brands of electric wheelchairs from Invacare, Kirshall and Permobil with styles, sizes, options, and wheelchair accessories to create a mobility device to meet your mobility and lifestyle needs.
Seat:
To measure the seat width, measure the person’s hips from one end to the other. Once measured, add two inches. You want to make sure that there is some breathing room but not too much space. To measure the depth, measure from the back of the hips to the back of knee. Then subtract one inch. This will allow you to sit comfortably without the seat always hitting the back of your knees.
Arms:
There are two arm lengths for wheelchairs: full-length and desk length. Full-length allows for more stability with people who constantly rise and sit. Desk length provides more comfort for those who will be sitting at a desk for an extended period of time. Arm chair height can be determined while seated by measuring from the elbow to the seat of the chair. It’s always best to have height adjustable arms in case preferences change.
Footrest
Elevated leg rests are suggested for people with edema, injuries or swelling. Leg rests on most wheelchairs lock to prevent excessive movement. The Power Standing Wheelchair correct fit can be found by measuring from the back of the knee to the heel of the foot.
Backrest
Backrests can be subjective. Depending on your height, your back rest should reach to your collarbone. There are back rests that are shorter for those desiring more movement. There are also higher backed chairs that for people that need additional back support.
Weight
Different wheelchairs are rated for weight capacity. Make sure you know the person’s weight when you select a wheel chair. Remember that certain people are more mobile than others. Choosing a lighter weight chair that suits their upper body strength is important.
