Wheel Chair Ramp
Wheel chair ramp (s) are built specifically for people with walking disabilities. However, they aren’t just artificial slopes built as wheel chair accessory (s).
Wheel chair ramp (s) will work for:
- the lightest
travel wheel chair to the heaviest of the wheel chair scooters...
- from the smallest of the pediatric wheel chairs to the largest of the motorized wheel chair scooters.
There are also commercially made portable wheel chair ramps which are wheel chair accessories. These make traveling with a wheel chair,...be it a manual wheel chair or a motorized wheel chair or wheel chair scooter... much easier.
Starting with the threshold, wheel chair ramps allow the wheel chair to be put into a vehicle or in some instances will allow the wheel chair user to access an otherwise inaccessible building.
Many of these ramps will accommodate wheel chairs of every kind and weight... from the heaviest motorized wheel chair to the lightest of the lightweight wheel chairs.
In determining what kind of a portable wheel chair ramp one wishes to purchase, it is important to give careful thought to how the portable wheel chair ramp will be:
- used
most of the time....and
- secondly, who will be the person handling and using it.
There are different ramps available and it's important the users know this:
- don’t
just settle for something that will do... but
- actively
pursue acquiring one that is just what they want...
- which will give them the ultimate freedom in their independent living.
If it is to be carried as a wheel chair accessory on the wheel chair itself...
- it's
important that it have user friendly ways in the way it's
attached.
- and that the attaching devices be adjustable to the changes that may occur to the wheel chair. Just in case it needs to be adapted in any way... as is often the case with the MS wheel chair.
Take note...many wheel chair manufacturers carry their own line of portable wheel chair ramps or will be able to give you expert advice on which ones will be the most advantageous for the users of their particular brand of wheel chair.
A lot of times, this advice will be based on what previous customers have shared with them or on what they themselves have discovered through quality control testing.
