Wheelchairs

Choosing a wheelchair starts with understanding how it will be used day to day. Someone who spends most of their time seated needs a different setup than someone who transfers in and out frequently. For full-time users, reclining high-back models with proper lumbar and head support help prevent pressure injuries and improve comfort over long stretches. A good wheelchair back cushion or gel cushion for wheelchair seating can make a real difference for anyone sitting for extended periods.

Size matters more than most people realize. A chair that's too narrow causes skin irritation, and one that's too wide makes self-propelling harder and increases fall risk. If you're unsure, a wheelchair size chart is a helpful starting point. We carry extra wide wheelchair options for larger body types, along with hemi height wheelchair models designed for users who propel with their feet rather than their hands.

For facilities ordering in bulk, we supply manual and electric wheelchairs suited for nursing homes, hospice programs, and assisted living communities. Our bariatric models support higher weight capacities, and our lightweight manual chairs are easy for staff to transport and store. If you need help building out a fleet or replacing aging equipment, our team can walk you through options based on your resident population and budget.
