Permobil Power Standing

Stand without compromise

Standing is an effective way to promote greater independence and reduce the risk for secondary complications associated with long-term sitting in wheelchairs. Permobil power standing wheelchairs empower you to utilise standing for activities of daily living, including the ability to drive while standing, in social, work and educational settings to positively impact mental health and quality of life. With fully programmable standing sequences that allow your position to be optimized using supine, semi-reclined, or sit-to-stand techniques.

Which base is best for you?
