Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about wheelchairs

? What is the difference between a transit and a self-propelled wheelchair?

Transit wheelchairs have smaller rear wheels and are designed to be pushed by a carer. Self-propelled wheelchairs have larger rear wheels with push rims so the user can move themselves. The best option depends on strength, balance, endurance, environment and how independently the person wants to move. An occupational therapist or physiotherapist can help decide which style is most suitable.

? How do I choose the right wheelchair size?

Seat width and depth should match the user’s body size, allowing enough space for clothing and any pressure care cushions without being too wide. Footplate height, arm support and backrest height also matter for comfort and posture. Our team can guide you through basic measurements, and an occupational therapist can provide a clinical fitting. You can also review sizing information in our product catalogues .

? Are your wheelchairs suitable for use in vehicles or taxis?

Some wheelchairs are transport-approved with specific tie-down points for use in vehicles, while others are designed for everyday mobility only. It is important to check the product information and labels, and follow the safety guidelines provided by your transport provider or wheelchair accessible taxi service. If you need a transport-approved chair, please speak with your therapist and contact our team so we can help you choose suitable options.

? Do you provide pressure care cushions for wheelchairs?

Yes. We stock a wide range of pressure care cushions from leading brands, including foam, gel, air and combination designs. These cushions can help manage pressure risk and comfort when prescribed or recommended by an allied health professional. Our team can help match cushions to wheelchair size and user needs, while your therapist can advise on clinical requirements.

? Should I choose a manual wheelchair or a power wheelchair?

This depends on your strength, endurance, how far you travel, and whether you have someone to assist with pushing. Manual chairs suit people who can self-propel or have regular carer support. Power wheelchairs are better when pushing is not safe or realistic, or when you need more independence over longer distances. An occupational therapist or physiotherapist can help you decide, and our team can then help compare suitable models.

? Can I use my NDIS funding for a wheelchair and cushions?

Many wheelchairs and pressure care cushions are considered assistive technology under the NDIS when they are recommended by an allied health professional and linked to your goals, such as mobility, community access and safety. Your occupational therapist or physiotherapist will usually complete assessments and supporting reports. For more information about how assistive technology works under the NDIS, you can visit the official NDIS page on assistive technology explained . We can provide quotes and product information for participants, support coordinators and plan managers.

? Do you hire wheelchairs as well as sell them?

Yes. We offer a range of wheelchairs for hire, which can be helpful for short-term recovery, visitors or trial use before deciding to purchase. Our current hire range and availability are managed through our dedicated hire website: https://hire.shhc.com.au/ . If you are unsure whether to buy or hire, our team can help you compare options based on your timeframe, funding and clinical recommendations.
