Tilt Wheelchairs


When your child needs help shifting weight, Tilt Wheelchairs can provide the ability to easily tilt onto his or her back while maintaining the body's position in a wheelchair seat. When tilted, a child's hip angles remain the same, but the body tilts backwards, allowing weight to shift, which provides pressure relief while maintaining range of motion. Each Tilt Wheelchair is also individually configured to your child's unique needs and personality.

Benefits

Health Health

Prevents Pressure Injuries
Redistributing pressure helps prevent pressure injuries.

Improves Orthopedics
Tilt allows your child's body to stay in alignment while providing pressure relief.

Supports Digestive Health
A correct, upright position helps prevent digestive complications.

Encourages Blood Flow
Tilting helps alleviate postural hypotension, while providing the ability to bring the child in to a completely upright position if Autonomic Dysreflexia is suspected.

Helps Lung Function
The ability to position and reposition correctly keeps the diaphragm open to help prevent complications for those at risk for respiratory complications.

Medical Necessity

To get insurance coverage for Complex Rehab Technology, your insurance provider must determine your child has a “medical necessity”. This means your child must have a condition that requires the equipment to prevent, diagnose or treat an illness, injury, condition, disease or its symptoms.

Most insurance providers only offer coverage if your child has a significant impairment that limits him or her from performing daily activities. However, Medicaid will often pay for parts, service and other mobility products and support so your child has more community access.

Who needs this technology?

If your child is dependent upon seating, can’t self-propel and can’t perform weight shifts independently, tilt technology is a great option. Many kids who have a brain injury or a severe disability can benefit from tilt technology.
