How to fill out manual or powered wheelchair

How to fill out a manual or powered wheelchair:

1. Start by ensuring that the wheelchair is positioned on a flat and stable surface, such as a floor or a wheelchair ramp.
2. For a manual wheelchair, locate the brakes on the back wheels and engage them to prevent the wheelchair from rolling while you fill it out. For a powered wheelchair, make sure the power is turned off.
3. Next, locate the seat cushion and check its placement. Adjust the cushion as needed to ensure it is centered and comfortable for the user.
4. Secure the seat cushion by fastening any straps or Velcro attachments that may be provided.
5. If necessary, locate and attach any additional support devices such as backrests, armrests, or footrests. Make sure they are adjusted to the user's comfort level.
6. For a manual wheelchair, adjust the height of the footplates so that the user's feet are comfortably supported and not dragging on the ground. For a powered wheelchair, adjust the footplates according to the user's preference.
