Meintjes and Neethling are proud suppliers of wheelchairs and other orthotis devices. a Wheelchair may be either manually pushed by the patient him-/herself or an aide, or with the help of electricity. Electric wheelchairs and scooters are recommended for patients with significant mobility/balance impairment.

Children living with cerebral palsy require many home nursing supplies that can all improve their quality of life, but none of them quite as much as wheelchairs and scooters. This is a means of giving a child a sense of independence they would otherwise never experience. Cerebral palsy wheelchairs may be electric or not, depending on the severity of the case, but the support of mobility it brings is undeniable in both cases.

All wheelchairs supplied by our team of orthotics and prosthetics practitioners are measured and fitted to the individual client’s needs by an expert orthopedic specialist. A wheelchair –like a car– has to be purchased by a person with a specific need and for a specific purpose.
