There is a range of mobility devices that can help you move safely, conserve energy, and remain more independent. Walking aids like a cane, four-wheel walker, or ankle foot brace (AFO) can help with balance and stability. Manual and transport wheelchairs can help you rest while moving about your home and community. And power mobility devices can provide freedom of movement even if you have limited physical mobility.

Manual WheelchairsStandard manual wheelchairs are not motorized and can be either self-propelled or pushed by caregivers. Lighter transport wheelchairs are often less comfortable, but handier for travel.

Power Mobility DevicesIf you have significantly limited physical mobility, power scooters, standard power wheelchairs, and tilt-and-recline power wheelchairs can provide greater freedom of movement.
