30 Ways a Power Wheelchair Can Change Your Life

If you have limited mobility, you may think your manual wheelchair is good enough — or you may think you're just fine without any help just yet. But don't you want to enjoy life and have your mobility back? A power wheelchair is certainly beneficial and can change your life! Or maybe you've thought that you don't need a power wheelchair just yet because of the initial investment.

But here's the thing: You can't put a price on your mobility.

Here are 30 Ways a Power Wheelchair Can Change Your Life

1. Doing daily activities around your home is manageable again.
2. One of the major benefits of having a power wheelchair is fall prevention: The less you're walking around unstable, the less chance there is that you'll trip over a random object or fall because of mobility issues.
3. No more feeling trapped.
4. Shopping at the mall isn't as exhausting and can be fun!
5. You can go on vacation again -- especially since it's easy to bring your power wheelchair on an airplane!
