The Wheelchair Skills Program (www.wheelchairskillsprogram.ca) is a set of free online low-tech, high-impact, evidence-based resources for the assessment and training of the wheelchair skills of users (with or without the assistance of their caregivers) of manual wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and motorized mobility scooters.
WARNING: Many wheelchair skills can be dangerous to perform. We strongly advise against attempting them, at least initially, without the presence of at least one knowledgeable and skilled spotter such as a therapist. A spotter is a person whose role is to ensure safety.

I am a teacher, I suddenly fell down and became completely paralyzed from the waist down. Please help me with an electric wheelchair to start my job.
These videos are not helping people if you do not include audio to assist people that do not have access to wheelchair skills classes. I was in a wheelchair for a year before I found a wheelchair skills class in that time. I was injured because all they did was drop my wheelchair off to me and I had scoured the Internet everywhere trying to find how to use my wheelchair properly.
What's the point of this?
Agree!! My dad was wheelchair bound. One person can easily pull the chair up those stairs. Common sense.
So fucked up that I wanted you to pushed him down the stairs 😂 Internet has made me evil
I thought title should say decend to go down
Why don't they simply lift it?
Shouldn't this be DESCENDS stairs???
That should not be a 3 person job. 2 at most including the person in chair
God job... show how to do it with 80kg person:)
Well, I did it on my own. 22 steps, three times a day in Italy. It is important to think of it one step at a time. Looking at it as a flight of stairs which you have to manage with a grown adult, is simply terrifying. One step at a time, means that you can cope. FEEL THE FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY!
how about a door that does not remain open ?
I like the wheelcher plese can you give❤❤❤
Thank you TH-cam for recommending me this .. I am at piece now
