Wheelchair Assistance

Practical Use

Many activities require the wheelchair owner to reach, bend and transfer in and

out of the wheelchair. These movements will cause a change to the normal

balance, the centre of gravity and weight distribution of the wheelchair.

To determine and establish your particular safety limits, activities involving

reaching, bending and transferring should first be practised with a qualified

health care professional.

Tilting

WARNING! Do not tilt the wheelchair without assistance.

1) The attendant should grasp the push handles securely,

making sure that the handle grips are firmly attached.

2) Inform the chair occupant before tilting the chair and

remind him/her to lean back. Be sure the occupant’s feet

and hands are clear of all wheels.

3) Place one foot on the tipping lever and apply a continuous motion until the

balance point is achieved. At this point, the attendant will feel a difference in

weight distribution (this usually occurs at about 14° angle).

4) Turn the wheelchair in the direction required.

5) Lower the front end, placing one foot on the tipping lever and grasping the

push handles to slowly lower to the ground.

NOTE: After mastering the techniques of tilting the chair, use this procedure to

tackle kerbs, steps, etc.

Kerbs

1) The attendant should stand on the pavement and turn the

chair so that the rear wheels are against the kerb.

2) The chair should be tilted back to the balance point and in

one continuous movement, the rear wheels should be pulled

up and over the kerb.

NOTE:

We recommend that two attendants are utilised for this

procedure.
