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.

Gets over obstacle
A training variation for the gets-over-obstacle skill. The learner goes over 4 identical obstacles, all lined up perpendicular to the path. She does well on the first obstacle but, for each of the remaining obstacles, she pops the casters too early. This allows the casters to land prematurely and strike the obstacles. This causes transient forward tips.

A training variation for the gets-over-obstacle skill. The learner goes over 4 identical obstacles, all lined up perpendicular to the path. He maintains a moving approach, but experiences difficulties with the timing of the propulsions between the obstacles and fails, until the final obstacle, to lean forward well when the rear wheels reach the obstacles.

A training variation for the gets-over-obstacle skill. The learner gets over 4 identical obstacles that are set at angles to one another. This variation emphasizes the importance of “squaring-up” to the obstacles during the approach. During the third obstacle, the learner pops the casters too high.

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 CZcams for recommending me this .. I am at piece now
