What Is Wheelchair Assistance?
Many medically fragile children live with conditions that impact their mobility, including cerebral palsy, spina bifida, and muscular dystrophy. A large number of children and young adults with these conditions rely on wheelchairs to help them get around and participate in daily activities. Wheelchair assistance from our nurses and personal care assistants at Gentle Care Home Services provides essential support for wheelchair users and their families, allowing you and your child to engage in educational, social, or recreational activities with minimal stress. Whether your child uses a powered or manual wheelchair, our team helps to ensure they are comfortable and mobile. Contact our providers in Augusta, GA to create a care plan that prioritizes your child's comfort, mobility, and freedom to explore the world around them.
How Do You Provide Care for Wheelchair-Bound Patients?
