Wheelchair and rollator combined in one device - multifunctional walking aids are ideal for people who can walk short distances with a rollator but need a wheelchair for long distances. Find out here how the multifunctional walking aid works and why you should choose one.
What is a multifunctional walking aid?
The 2-in-1 walking aid acts as a rollator to provide support when walking. The handles are usually height-adjustable so that you can stand upright and safely. Large wheels and a stable frame make walking safe and comfortable.
With just a few simple steps, the rollator can be converted into a wheelchair if necessary. In most cases, footrests and a seat can be folded out or extended. This means you can sit down comfortably and rest while someone pushes you.
The advantages of multifunctional walking aids
A combination of rollator and wheelchair is worthwhile because the models are so versatile and flexible. You can use them comfortably in your home or outdoors and use them as a rollator or to rest in the wheelchair as needed.
Switching from a rollator to a wheelchair is easy and doesn't require any major modifications. This is particularly helpful in old age or when mobility is restricted.
Multifunctional walking aids are also practical because they save both space and money. Instead of buying two devices and storing them in your home, combination models are easy on your wallet. They are easy to transport and can be easily stored.
Thanks to these features, a multifunctional walking aid such as the Z51 Shift Combo 2-in-1 rollator can make your everyday life much easier and provide the necessary flexibility.
With a combination of a rollator and a wheelchair you can also strengthen your muscles. Instead of just sitting in a wheelchair, a multifunctional walking aid gives you the opportunity to use the rollator from time to time and train your leg muscles. This can lead to better blood circulation and more mobility.
Who is a multifunctional walking aid suitable for?
If you are still able to walk short distances with a rollator, but quickly get tired on longer journeys, a multifunctional walking aid could be just the thing for you. You can flexibly adapt the model to your individual needs and how you are feeling on the day.
The solution is particularly suitable for people with conditions such as arthritis or Parkinson's, which make gripping difficult. If you are tired or your grip strength decreases, you can simply sit in the wheelchair and take a break.
Conclusion
Multifunctional walking aids , which are a rollator and wheelchair in one, can provide enormous relief for people with limited mobility. Those who can still walk short distances independently but need support for longer distances usually need both a rollator and a wheelchair. In the case of illnesses such as arthritis or Parkinson's, multifunctional walking aids also offer the necessary rest in between.
