Who & why...

Today we are faced with an ever increasing number of elderly people who, due to various ailments or simply due to an advanced age, have encountered mobility related problems and are therefore forced to use an orthopedic wheelchair.

Because of such conditions these people in order to perform routine tasks often require assistance as they are no longer capable of doing so independently.

One of the most frequent scenarios, where assistance is totally necessary, is entering and exiting a vehicle..

 

This entails a considerable effort for both the carer (family member / friend) and the passenger, not to mention the high risk of injury for both.
