It is also can’t be use for a long period as the user tired in moving the chair using his or her own energy. In this current generation, a wheelchair is crucial equipment for a hospital or any healthcare facility to easily transport their patients to a certain destination. However, each patient was diagnosed with different kind of injuries or disabilities. Some of them could not sit straight on the wheelchair due to back injuries. This is a problem that people nowadays are not aware of. Thus, a solution is created to reduce and minimize the problems that had been facing by the patients. There are many types and models of wheelchairs with varying features and benefits, but they can broadly separate into manual wheelchairs and power wheelchairs. Manual wheelchairs include self-propelled wheelchairs, which are pushed by the user. Nowadays, senior citizens come to a point in their life when they realize they may need help walking.
