POWER WHEELCHAIR

Reduction of mobility can be very common as we grow old, which might make moving around a difficult task. In addition to old age, other factors that can lead to a loss or reduction in mobility are injuries, health problems and many more. There are many products that help people with limited mobility, move around freely and independently.

Mobility aids are assistive devices suitable for senior adults, injured people or people with decreased mobility due to other health issues, that help them carry on their daily routine without being dependent on caretakers. One of them is a wheelchair. Seniority has curated a wide range of wheelchairs that are specially designed to suit your requirements.

WHEN TO USE MOBILITY AIDS?

A mobility aid is helpful for people with temporary or permanent conditions that affect their mobility, balance and weight bearing. Some mobility aids can be used by people with sufficient upper body strength and coordination such as walkers and crutches, while other mobility aids like wheelchairs are more suited for people with less upper body strength.

    A few examples of situations where mobility aids are useful are:

    • Weakened lower body

    • Knee/Ankle/Foot/Back Surgery

    • Fractures in the lower limbs

    • ACL tear or injury

    • Impaired balance
