There are a few complaints that we tend to hear from wheelchair riders about their chair, like “hard to push”, “heavy to turn”, or the dreaded “I just don’t like it”. In most cases, these complaints are fixable or preventable by making some simple adjustments to the set-up of the chair. The caveat, of course, is as long as you have the adjustability built into the wheelchair. If someone does not like their K0003 chair, you will likely find there is nothing you can do about it. Their K0005 wheelchair, now that’s another (and happier) story.
In this session, we will put together a lot of the information that we have discussed in previous sessions to help decide what kind of chair might be right for an individual user, as well as the adjustments to look for both for today and into the future to help your wheelchair prescription be a success. We will also examine some of the accessories that you can choose to help ensure your rider is going to get the most satisfaction from his/her chair.
This module covers how you can get the most of the Quantum Rehab TRU-Balance 3 seating systems by understanding how to adjust seat width, seat depth and correctly configure the centre of gravity. We will also cover the basic features and components of the REAC Lift and Tilt seat base system.
