Characteristics

Conditions

Cognitive Abilities

For safe independent use, users must understand cause + effect (action = result). Independent use requires directional understanding (i.e. moving the wheels in one direction results in matching chair movement), problem solving (i.e. combine + time 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 sufficient vision, trunk control and enough upper extremity grip, strength and stamina to steer and/or propel the chair. For foot propulsion, users must also have functional use of at least one lower extremity. Their adjustable foot and armrests and seat position make them appropriate for users requiring minimal positioning. This chair may not be appropriate for those with visual deficits, uncontrolled seizures, bilateral upper extremity weakness and those with poor trunk control.

Environment

Standard wheelchairs can be used both indoors and outdoors. They perform best on firm, flat surfaces such as pavement, groomed footpaths, cycle paths and in and around home. While it can be used outdoors, they not intended to be used on rough terrain, slopes, loose gravel, or sand. Their relatively small turn radius makes them appropriate for indoor use where space is limited.

Activities

Their maneuverability and small turn radius make standard wheelchairs ideal for use in tight spaces (stores, elevators, public washrooms, public transit etc.). While they can be used outdoors, they are best for activities done on flat level surfaces like urban sightseeing or sidewalk commuting.
Warnings

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.

Full Description

MT Push is our buddy chair and provides inclusive access as it has the ability to push over a wide variety of terrain.

It does not have the unique lever drive system where riders can propel themselves but has an adjustable push handle located behind the user, which is where the steering and braking takes place by the riders buddy. The drive levers have been replaced with adjustable armrests for rider comfort and ease of use and manoeuvrability has been taken into consideration for the person pushing.

The MT Push was developed and evolved following discussions with the National Trust in the UK who were looking to open up their outdoor spaces for all to enjoy. They now have a growing number of sites who provide these all terrain wheelchairs for visitor use – see the National Trust page for more information.

With all the features and rugged good looks of our original Mountain Trike, but without the need to self propel – this Trike comes with a built in push handle so you can be pushed in style. We introduced the MT Push into our product range in 2015 and customers have found it ideal for country walks with family and friends, city breaks, strolls along the beach and even muddy music festivals! The MT Push is the perfect partnership for both the rider and person pushing – providing comfort, safety and ease of use – so everyone can have fun exploring.

If at any point your circumstances change, it is possible to convert the MT Push to the lever drive Mountain Trike – this offers greater flexibility and the option to self propel at a later point should you require. We are able to adapt the adult frame to suit a child so that the Trike grows with them into adulthood making it a great long term purchase.

All our products come with a 3 year warranty and a wide selection of colour choices.
