A small, easily-foldable transport chair, the Omega La1 Lightweight Transit Wheelchair is great fit for those who cannot walk long distances in public and need the assistance of others. The hand brake and padded handles are meant to allow caregivers the simple ability to safely manage their loved one’s movement. Small pneumatic and solid wheels can navigate tight corners and the seating options of this wheelchair are limited, making it only appropriate for short, occasional trips. Footrests with plates that fold up are affixed to the chair, since they are ideal for smaller individuals whose feet may be otherwise suspended. This feature also allows them to move out of the way to allow individuals to safely get in and out of the chair without tearing their skin or getting injured. However, because they cannot be removed, this chair is best suited for someone who needs mobility assistance, does not have sufficient upper extremity strength to self-propel, and has a caregiver who can assist with moving them throughout the community.
