For Albertans with more complex mobility needs, a rehabilitation powered wheelchair may provide the independence, comfort, and support required for everyday life.
These advanced wheelchairs can be customized with specialized seating, positioning systems, tilt, recline, power elevating leg rests, specialty controls, and many other features to meet an individual's unique needs.
Funding assistance may be available through programs such as Alberta Aids to Daily Living (AADL), Workers' Compensation Board (WCB), Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), or other agencies.
Eligibility is based on a professional assessment of your medical condition, mobility limitations, and daily living requirements.
Rehabilitation powered wheelchairs are typically prescribed by authorized occupational therapists or physiotherapists who have specialized training in mobility assessments.
MEDmobility works with many of the industry's leading manufacturers, including Permobil, Sunrise Medical, Pride Mobility, Motion Concepts, and others.
A wide variety of seating systems, electronics, and wheelchair configurations are available, allowing a mobility solution to be tailored specifically to your needs, goals, and lifestyle.
If you are unsure whether you qualify for funding or which wheelchair may be right for you, our team can help guide you through the assessment and funding process.
