Going down a steep slope
The use of the wheelchair on slopes greater than the maximum recommended may put the user
at risk. If such slopes are unavoidable then
It is safer for the attendant to take the wheelchair down
backwards.
The occupant may be able to help by controlling the
wheels or the brakes. (Hub brakes if fitted are more
suited for this purpose)
The user weight will have a significant effect on
controlling the wheelchair the heavier the user the
more difficult it will be to control the wheelchair.
5.5 Wheelchair stability
Certain routines and movements may affect the stability of the wheelchair
The following factors can affect the wheelchair stability: -
User body movement
REACHING - BENDING FORWARD
DO NOT lean your body forward out of the wheelchair further than the length of the
armrests as this may affect your stability.
DO NOT attempt to pick up objects from the floor or to reach out at switches by
bending forward or reaching between your knees as this may affect your stability.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects by sliding forward to the edge of the wheelchair
seat as this may affect your stability.
Leaning forwards when going up slopes can improve the rearwards stability and leaning the
upper body uphill when moving across a slope can improve sideways stability.
REACHING - BENDING BACKWARDS
DO NOT reach back any further than your arm will extend without changing your
sitting position as this may affect your stability.
DO NOT
lean over the top of the backrest as it will shift the centre of gravity, risking
tipping over.
DO NOT
hang heavy loads or objects on the backrest. They may make the
wheelchair unstable, especially on an incline.
Assistive devices such as grab sticks can be used to reduce the upper body movement.
Contact your healthcare specialist for further details.
