Who it suits
This is the everyday steel wheelchair for hospitals, aged care homes and clinics that need reliable chairs in numbers. The self propelling version has large rear wheels with handrims, so a client with reasonable arm function can move themselves around a ward or a day centre under their own steam.
The steel frame holds up to constant handling, shared use and the knocks that come with a busy facility. Vinyl upholstery is the reason it works in clinical settings: it wipes clean between users and copes with the cleaning agents infection control requires.
It folds for storage and transport, and swing away footrests make transfers easier for staff. As a ward chair it is designed for many users, so it works as a facility pool chair where the fit is adjusted by choosing the right size.
