Disability and Mobility Aids for Wheelchairs

Disability and Mobility Aids for Wheelchairs

Disability aids support everyday tasks, while mobility aids help people move around more independently. The right equipment depends on the person, their environment, and the activities they want to do.

Everyday mobility

Examples include canes, crutches, walkers, manual wheelchairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters. Other assistive tools help with reaching, gripping, and personal care at home.

Accessible transportation

Vehicle equipment can include ramps, wheelchair lifts, transfer seats, wheelchair securement, and adapted driving controls. These products serve different purposes: some help a person enter the vehicle, others transport mobility equipment, and others assist with driving.

Find an appropriate fit

Consider your wheelchair or scooter, available space, seating arrangements, and how you travel. Explore mobility equipment or speak with AMS Vans about vehicle compatibility and installation.
