REACHING, LEANING AND BENDING - FORWARD

GENERAL GUIDELINES

SECTION 1	GENERAL GUIDELINES

REACHING, LEANING AND BENDING - FORWARD

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from the floor by reaching down between your knees.

Position the front casters so that they are extended as far forward as possible and engage wheel locks.

REACHING, LEANING - BACKWARDS

WARNING

DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery. This will change your center of gravity and may cause you to tip over.

Position wheelchair as close as possible to the desired object. Point front casters forward to create the longest possible wheelbase. Reach back only as far as your arm will extend without changing your sitting position.

TIPPING

WARNING

DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance.

When tipping the wheelchair, an assistant should grasp the back of the wheelchair on a non- removable (non-detachable) part. Inform the wheelchair occupant before tipping the wheel- chair and remind him/her to lean back. Be sure the occupant’s feet and hands are clear of all wheels and/or pinch points.

After mastering the techniques of tipping the wheelchair, use one (1) of the following methods to tackle curbs, short stairs, etc.
