What types of manual wheelchairs does Health Marketplace NZ offer?
We offer five main types: Standard manual wheelchairs for general use, transit wheelchairs (lightweight, caregiver-pushed), lightweight/ultra-lightweight wheelchairs for active users, tilt-in-space and reclining wheelchairs for postural support, and bariatric wheelchairs with higher weight capacity and reinforced frames.
How do I fold and unfold a manual wheelchair?
To fold: lift up under the center seat upholstery. To unfold: tilt slightly to one side and press down on seat rails, keeping fingers clear of moving parts. Always ensure the wheelchair is fully locked in the open position before use.
How do I choose the correct wheelchair size?
Key measurements needed: sitting height, hip width, and leg length. Quick fit checks: ensure a hand fits between armrest and thigh, and two fingers fit behind knee to seat edge. Proper fit prevents pressure areas and ensures comfort.
Why are swing-away legrests important?
Swing-away legrests allow the wheelchair to get closer to transfer surfaces, making transfers easier and safer. They accommodate hoists and transfer equipment, essential for independent transfers and caregiver assistance.
Can I adjust the legrest length?
Yes, footplate position is adjustable. Loosen the bolt, adjust position so knees and hips are at the same angle, then retighten. Proper adjustment prevents thigh pressure and ensures optimal comfort.
Why are anti-tippers important?
Anti-tippers prevent backward tipping on inclines and during weight shifts. Health Marketplace NZ strongly recommends never removing them as they provide crucial protection against dangerous backward falls.
What is the ideal wheelchair backrest height?
The backrest should end just under the shoulder blades. Adjustable height backrests are recommended, especially when using cushions, to balance caregiver pushing ease with user self-propelling ability.
What are the benefits of adjustable armrests?
Adjustable armrests accommodate different user sizes and cushion heights, enable table access, proper tray positioning, and prevent shoulder problems by supporting forearms with elbows at 90 degrees.
Do you offer second-hand wheelchairs?
Please contact Health Marketplace NZ directly for information about second-hand or refurbished wheelchair availability, condition assessments, warranties, and pricing for budget-friendly options.
What maintenance does my wheelchair need?
Monthly checks: verify tire pressure, clean axles of debris, ensure smooth castor movement, test brake effectiveness, and check all nuts and bolts are secure. Regular maintenance ensures safety and optimal performance.
