Providing Manual Wheelchairs

in Idaho, Washington, Oregon & Montana

Since 2002, American Seating and Mobility has provided manual wheelchair products for thousands of mobility customers in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Wyoming. Our team of RESNA Certified Assistive Technology Professionals (ATP) have advanced experience in providing both standard and custom manual wheelchairs for a wide variety of disabilities and diagnosis. Along with your healthcare team, our ATPs evaluate those in need of manual wheelchairs to find the most appropriate wheelchair solutions for the consumer’s unique situation.

Evaluating a consumer for the most appropriate manual wheelchair product is an art and requires a complete review of many different circumstances such as needing a wheelchair just for transport to using a wheelchair full time as a consumers main means of mobility. Custom solutions are also often needed for unique situations calling for a thorough mobility evaluation.

Manual Wheelchair Solutions

Tilt In Space

A tilt in space manual wheelchair is a high end wheelchair solution for clients who typically have a more advanced condition, disability or progressive disease. These specialty wheelchairs often address pressure relief and positioning issues due to the ability of these chairs to tilt up to 50 degrees. To determine if you or your loved one needs a tilt in space wheelchair, you must be evaluated by an physical therapist or occupational therapists as well as work with a certified supplier with ATPs on staff. All four of our branches have these certified ATPs on staff available to work with your healthcare providers to evaluate you for these specialty wheelchairs and process via your insurance.

Manual Wheelchairs

There is much more to manual wheelchairs than meets the eye. Sometime consumers need a wheelchair for transport via a caregiver and many times they require a wheelchair for their main type of mobility to be independent at home and in their communities. There are significant differences between a standard wheelchair and an ultralight wheelchair. Both require a trained professional and clinicians to evaluate and provide these products. Ultralight wheelchairs are often custom built by manufacturer for that specific client. Our team is professional certified as ATPs to evaluate and provide these types of products along with your healthcare professional.

Custom Solutions

We understand that every consumer who needs or relies on a wheelchair is unique. Body types, conditions, diagnosis, injuries and other factors often calls for a complete custom configuration. Our qualified team of ATPs are very experienced with working with therapist, physicians, case workers and other healthcare professionals to help determine the most appropriate type of manual wheelchair that takes into consideration the consumers living situation, home environment, positioning and mobility needs and many other factors to assist the consumer with maximum mobility and independence in their everyday lives.
