INTRODUCTION
An individual might need a wheelchair if their
activities are limited due to certain elements,
such as a genetic health problem or disability,
an illness or injury brought about by a vehicular
accident, or other harmful incidents.
3
FINDING THE RIGHT WHEELCHAIR
Safety strongly depends on the wheelchair that an
individual is operating. Any issues or flaws
concerning the apparatus can seriously influence
not only the health of the person who is using it
but also his life.
4
SECURING THE
INDIVIDUAL
IN THE CHAIR
Some automobiles and school buses are constructed
to fit a wheelchair or two easily. Before an
individual in a wheelchair is positioned inside a
vehicle, he must first be adequately secured in
his chair. This will control the individual from
sliding out of it.
5
SECURING THE INDIVIDUAL IN THE VEHICLE
When securing an indiivdual in a wheelchair
inside an automobile, it is necessary to operate
the seatbelt correctly. The seatbelt needs to go
around the shoulder and the lower pelvis rather
than just being enveloped around the abdominal
area.
6
USE POSTURAL SUPPORT IF NEEDED
Some individuals might require postural support
when traveling in their wheelchairs. These
instruments help in enhancing comfort while in
transit.
7
Anyone who regularly transports people in
wheelchairs, particularly school bus operators
who often ferry students in such chairs, must
have appropriate training. This way, they'll
understand how to correctly secure the individual
to the wheelchair and the chair to the automobile.
