No, professional programming is required for your power wheelchair. While understanding the process is a great first step, having a professional configure your device is crucial for promoting safety, extending battery life, and preventing issues such as jerky responses or strain and injury.

Our clinicians perform a personalized evaluation to adjust several key parameters tailored to your body abilities and daily environment, including:

• Speed limits (forward and reverse)
• Acceleration and braking sensitivity
• Turning response and torque
• Joystick sensitivity
• Safety features, such as tip-over switches, seat-belt reminders, and tilt alarms

We also configure specialized drive profiles, such as a crawl mode for precise indoor maneuvering and a cruise mode for outdoor travel. Once these settings are optimized, we lock them to prevent any accidental changes, ensuring your Custom Motorized Wheelchairs provide a predictable and effortless driving experience from day one.

We’re here to help you achieve Greater Independence. You can visit our Spring Valley office for an initial patient evaluation and personalized fittings.

Results may vary. Consult your treating healthcare professional for medical necessity. Please verify Medicare/insurance coverage; as a supplier, we do not guarantee coverage.
