Electric Wheelchair Rental Service

Electric wheelchair is a major improvement over the traditional manual wheelchairs as it is now automated. The old manual wheelchair has been given an upgrade by adding motors to power the wheelchairs and batteries. The modern electric wheelchairs are packed with user friendly features and intuitive interfaces. It is also the reason why the latest electric wheelchairs are expensive and not affordable for the masses. If the user requires the use of a wheelchair temporarily, it is advisable to only rent the wheelchair for that short duration of time. There are many places where you can rent electric wheelchairs. You can approach the hospitals or homes for aged where spare electric wheelchairs are rented out for short periods of between two weeks to a month.

Selecting the right electric wheelchair to rent

Though you may only use the electric wheelchair for a short while, you should ensure that you are using the correct wheelchair as it will assist you in recovering faster from the injury. For example, you should choose wheelchair seats which are comfortable and fits your hip perfectly. Choosing the wrong seats will cause problems such as piles and poor blood circulation at the back. Next is the controls for the electric wheelchairs. If the electric wheelchair is rented for elderly people, the controls should be as simple as possible. There are electric wheelchairs with only a joystick and they are ideal for use by older people. The place where the electric wheelchair will travel frequently should also be taken into consideration. If it is always used on rough surfaces, you should switch to wheels which are tough and have better grip on the ground.
