Seat Size

It's important for the wheelchair to be fitted properly and be as narrow as possible while maintaining comfort and safety. This will insure the best performance for navigating tight areas both inside the home as well out in public spaces.

A wheelchair that is too narrow or too wide can cause discomfort. When too narrow, a wheelchair can become restrictive and increase the likelihood of pressure sores, while when it's too wide, becomes more difficult to push due to the angle of the arms from the shoulders to the wheels.

To determine the necessary seat width, measure the rider's widest area of the body and add one inch. This will allow for optimum seat width while maintaining ideal usability, comfort and safety.

To determine the appropriate seat depth, measure from the back of a chair to the inside of your knee. Subtract one inch to assure no contact is made between the edge of the wheelchair seat and the inside of your leg, which could cause discomfort and prevent the rider from sitting back fully in the chair.

Silvert's Unisex Lined Wheelchair Poncho

Silvert's exclusive Wheelchair Cape is adaptive clothing at its best. It provides winter warmth and comfort to anyone who uses a wheelchair. The shorter back stays clear of the wheels and the attached hood keeps out the rain. A convenient front zipper makes donning the cape easy. Composed of durable water repellent polyester-cotton with plush pile lining for warmth, the cape is terrific for elderly/seniors who are disabled. Machine washable. One size.

Non-Slip Waterproof Gel Cushion

The Triple Protection Gel Cushion combines a pressure-reducing dual chamber gel bladder with foam cushion outer layer for maximum protection.

The fluid resistant, urethane-coated nylon cover is flame resistant, anti-microbial and anti-mildew. Convenient hook and loop straps connect the cushion to the wheelchair frame and a non-slip bottom keeps the cushion in place.

Drive Molded Foam Cushion

A unique construction of high resilient molded foam allows for maximum stabilization, positioning and pressure relief in this great new cushion from Drive Medical.

The foam is molded to fit the lower body and encourages correct posture. Included is a stretch polyester knit cover that is removable, washable and flame retardant with a non-slip bottom for comfort and safety.

Back Cushion with Lumbar Support

This new General Use Back Cushion with Lumbar Support from Drive Medical is a great way to improve your seating posture while providing back support and comfort.

The cushion's unique shape comforms to provide support to the lumbar region and a stabilization board prevents the foam core from hammocking in sling-back wheelchairs.

A sealed inner liner protects the cushion's core from moisture and accidents. Additionally, the cushion has a non-slip vinyl back which prevents the support from moving around behind the user.

Carry Bag for Transport Chairs

This carry bag is for folding transport wheelchairs chairs up to 19" wide. It is made of a durable nylon and has a shoulder strap for a easy and convenient way to carry a transport chair.

Roho Posturelite Cushion

PostureLITE™ Cushion by ROHO® is a new self-adjusting wheelchair cushion that combines unparalleled ease of use with comfortable skin protection. It is ideal for anyone who may be at risk of skin breakdown and may have normal sensation. PostureLITE features a “closed system” design that utilizes both foam and air to provide fail-safe support which never needs adjustment.

The preset air and foam cushion offers a perimeter air expansion chamber that conforms to the contours of the body to help provide comfortable suspension and skin protection. Similar to ROHO cushions, PostureLITE works by allowing continuous redistribution of air within the cushion with every weight shift. This maximizes the contact area of the cushion to help manage pressure and increase tissue viability.
