Cognitive Abilities
For safe use, users must understand cause + effect (action = result). Independent use requires directional understanding (i.e. moving control in one direction results in matching chair movement), problem solving (i.e. plan + coordinate movements to get from A to B), and judgment (ability to learn that if something is unsafe they should not do it).
Functional Abilities
Users must have adequate vision and be able to use either a joystick, head/tray array, breath control or a combination control. This chair is best for people with upper limb weakness/pain, poor trunk control, limited endurance, cardiopulmonary disease, and obesity. This chair may be unsafe for those with visual deficits and uncontrolled seizures.
Environment
This chair is best for use outdoors and in indoor environments where there is plenty of space to turn and maneuver. User must be able to accommodate the length of the wheelchair behind them (like when pulling a trailer). This chair is ideal for climbing obstacles and inclines (although user may be limited by footplate position).
Activities
Given its stability on rugged terrain, this chair is ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, fruit-picking, and traversing the varied terrain of college/work campuses. While power chairs are bulky to travel with, this one is best for driving on grass, gravel, and cobblestone. Its also good for indoor activities where there is adequate space.
Please speak with your healthcare provider and schedule an in-person consultation before purchasing this product, to evaluate whether it is truly the best option for you.
