Look for a favorable warranty and financing from a supplier of pediatric wheelchairs
When you find the wheelchair styles and accessories you want, it's time to take a look at the pricing, warranties and policies. You want a company that covers damage, repairs and offers the parts needed for the repair. You also want a test time where if the chair is not going to work for your residents, you can return it. Remember, pediatric wheelchairs are not cheap, especially if you need more than one, so unless you have equipment start-up money in the bank, you are going to need financing.
