DISABILITY IS INCREASING Number of U. S. Adults Reporting a Disability is Increasing 47.5 million US adults report a disability; more than one-third are aging “baby boomers.” A new CDC study shows that 47.5 million US adults (21.8%) reported a disability [1] in 2005, an increase of 3.4 million from 1999. Arthritis or rheumatism continues to be the most common cause of disability, while back or spine problems and heart trouble round out the top three causes.
How to determine which wheelchair is the best fi t. 1 Determine Seat Size • Seat width should be determined by measuring from hip to hip in a straight line. Add two inches to this measurement. • Seat depth should be determined by measuring from the back of the hip to the back of the knee of the user while seated. Subtract one inch from this measurement.
PREVENTING WHEELCHAIR THEFT Wheelchair theft has been a problem for many institutions for years, but with the increased unemployment and higher costs of living, preventing theft has become imperative. 3. Attach anti-fold devices below the seat or overhead to discourage theft. Preventing the patient from being able to put a wheelchair in his or her vehicle has also proven to be an effective deterrent for theft. Anti-theft and anti-fold bars are common solutions to this problem.
Value-Added Programs FREE Custom Laminated Labels Stolen or lost wheelchairs are a frustrating problem for many institutions. Medline wants to help you solve that problem. For a limited time, when you order ten or more wheelchairs, we’ll design custom, full-color, laminated labels you can put on the outside of the wheelchair’s side panels. These attractive labels are great for discouraging theft and advertising your business or institution’s name.
