How would it be when someone unable to walk around his home, neighbourhood, and community due to some physical conditions gets an opportunity to do so? It would be like achieving independence for physically dependent people, patients, or aged people.
Physical conditions that prevent mobility of people whether temporarily or permanently can rob them of even the ability to meet their own daily needs. That’s not all! They can also interfere with participation in the community or enjoyment of leisure and social activities. Adaptive equipment, such as wheelchairs, rollators, walkers, and canes, can restore the independence of someone who has lost his/her independence by physical disabilities.
Let’s take an instance of the walker. It is a simple frame of legs that offers stability to someone who cannot bear weight on both legs. At the same time, they wouldn’t require a wheelchair either. Upper body strength is necessary to lift the device with each step and allow for a slow pace. Front wheeled walkers still offer support and stability and the wheels can lower friction to make forward movement easier and convenient.
Wheelchairs are important for physically disabled people, patients, or for people with mobility conditions. They give mobility independence to those people and can go anywhere they wish. By using wheelchairs, they can travel and spend time outside of their home. The larger wheels like the one as seen in the image above are better for rougher terrain such as grass or pavement while smaller wheels and frame may be more ideal for someone who spends most of their time at home. At the time of traveling outside, someone using larger wheeled wheelchair would require to be transferred to a vehicle and use ramps. Do you want to buy them?
