Croydon's wheelchair service aims to meet the needs of individuals with a permanent need for a wheelchair, with the overall aim of achieving independence in daily living.
Wheelchairs provided for full time users who are active, independent and can self-propel. These wheelchairs are prescribed and built from a range of options to suit an individual’s clinical needs. They are slightly lighter than standard wheelchairs and have a rigid frame, so only the backrest folds down.
The assessment focuses on the user’s clinical and lifestyle needs and supply of equipment is from a specific range designed to fulfil the client’s clinical needs.
This type of wheelchair will not be provided where the carer finds the chair heavy to lift into the car; instead the carer will be given instruction on alternative ways of doing this. Advice can be given regarding the purchase of car hoists for wheelchairs.
Any user requiring a high performance chair for employment should have their needs met by Access to Work or a similar scheme.
