Designed in close consultation with Portering staff at several major hospitals, the RJ Portering wheelchair has proved popular in hospitals throughout the UK.

Minimum maintenance, maximum comfort, easy to push and non-folding for security are the key features. Built in high-grade tubular steel for durability, designed to be attractive and simple to wipe clean, this affordable range will truly enhance any hospital environment, where people movement is a necessity.

Options include security locks preventing unauthorized use, oxygen bottle carriers to suit acute care, and elevating legrests where orthopaedics are involved. This range really has been carefully created to meet the needs of a busy, diverse hospital environment.
