Wheelchair Maintenance Program

As part of our Wheelchair Maintenance Program, staff will clean and perform a safety check on your chair every four months for an added fee. More frequent maintenance service is available at extra cost.

Your chair will be picked up in the evening and returned in the morning before you need it. If a routine maintenance check finds that your wheelchair is unsafe and requires major repairs, it will be kept in our service department. With your approval and agreement to pay for any parts and service, repairs will be completed. (A temporary transport wheelchair will be provided until your chair is repaired and returned.)

Please note: This service is free for members of the Client Services Plan (CSP) (click on Financial Arrangements on the left).

For more information about wheelchairs, ask your unit clerk for our Wheelchair Services Information booklet.
