Wheelchair safety is an important topic - proper use and maintenance will help you to stay safe and avoid injury. 

It is important to always maintain your center-of-gravity. Use a positioning belt if there is one available with your mobility chair. For wheelchair safety, practice completing reaching actions in someone's presence prior to attempting them on your own. When you reach, lean, or bend forward, always use the wheel locks or brakes and maintain a firm, balanced seat position. Never reach between your knees or move forward in your seat to pick up an object.

Prior to attempting to ride on ramps, inclines, or declines, determine your capabilities by first practicing with an attendant. Never attempt to go up a steep slope alone. Before traversing a pathway, road or sidewalk, look for uneven surfaces, spills, holes or obstacles before proceeding.

Don't attempt to go up a curb or tip your wheelchair without the assistance of an attendant. It is always safer to find your way around a curb rather than go up it. Look for a nearby ramp, curb cut, or elevator.
