Finding a Child Size Electric Wheelchair Near You

If your teenager or child has a medical condition/disability that affects his or her mobility, he or she may qualify for a child power wheelchair. Please schedule a face-to-face evaluation with your child’s doctor or therapist. They can perform an evaluation to determine if your child may benefit from a power chair, such as the Edge 3 Stretto.

If your child is prescribed a power chair and a prescription is written by a licensed professional, we can refer you to an authorized Quantum provider that can assess your child’s needs. A physical or occupational therapist may work with an Assistive Technology Professional, or ATP, to determine which child power wheelchair best suits his or her needs.
