Motorized WheelchairsMotorized wheelchairs or "power chairs" as they are sometimes referred to, cover a vast range of design and options. Motorized wheelchairs differ from a mobility scooter in that the scooter is designed primarily for outdoor use with some indoor use (stores, malls, libraries, etc.). The power chair is used mainly indoors (in the home, office or apartment) as well as outdoors in the same sense of a scooter. They are categorized as two types essentially; "rehab-style motorized wheelchairs", designed for those who have spent most of their time in the power chair and have special needs, such as quadraplegia, Advanced MS sufferers etc., or "consumer power chairs", designed for those who have difficulty with mobility both around their home and outdoors, but don't spend all day in their chair. The latest innovation in motorized wheelchairs is small, cost effective AND portable. The same Safety Tips and Motor Vehicle Act rules apply to motorized wheelchairs and power chairs as to mobility scooters. |
