The Perfect Fit For Your Child In Your Wheelchair Accessible Van
07-02-2010
At Ride-Away, we believe that your child should have access to proper equipment for safe transportation. Finding the perfect fit for your child in your wheelchair accessible van can be a daunting task if you are unsure of what to look for, or which questions to ask your Mobility Consultant. There are many factors to consider when transporting a child such as:
Safety & Positioning Inside the Vehicle
The rear positions are the safest place for children under the age of 12, due to the impact a deploying air bag has. Ride-Away will work with you to find the ideal position to transport your child for safety and convenience.
Being able to sit next to family and friends in the wheelchair accessible vehicle is important to your child. We know in situations where this is desirable, your child sitting shoulder to shoulder with their brother and sister can feel more like one big happy family!
The Childs Physical Needs
For a child with special needs who requires frequent observation/medical assistance during travel, being close to the driver or attendant may be critical. Ride-Away has many options to meet your need and work with you to determine which will work best for you and your family.
Will your child be transferring from their wheelchair to a seat in the vehicle? If your child is able to transfer from their wheelchair to a seat in the vehicle, your mobility options may increase.
Room Inside The Vehicle
The size of your family could impact which wheelchair accessible van you purchase. For example, if you have a large family that travels, you may need more room for luggage or equipment. A side-entry wheelchair accessible van might be a better option for you in this case.
You may also need enough room to make sure that any ancillary pieces of medical equipment are secured on the vehicle floor or underneath a seat. In this case, a rear-entry wheelchair accessible van might be a better solution for you.
Does your child have multiple wheelchairs that he or she uses? If so, it is important to inform your Mobility Consultant that your child uses multiple wheelchairs, so that each wheelchair can be measured.
Is the headrest on your child’s wheelchair adjustable, retractable, or flexible? This is an essential factor to consider during this process because the headrest could factor into how the wheelchair is positioned in the vehicle.
The width and length of your childs wheelchair also is a major factor to consider. If your childs wheelchair is too wide, this can create an issue with 2nd row seating in some rear-entry wheelchair accessible vans. For some customers, we have gone to extraordinary lengths, even going back to the manufacturer of the wheelchair for adjustments to make it work. The length of your childs wheelchair could also present a dilemma with the use of side-entry wheelchair accessible vans because a longer wheelchair limits your childs maneuverability inside your wheelchair accessible van. We always work with what you have to in order to determine the best situation for you and your family.
After you have taken into consideration each of these factors, the next step will be to measure your child’s wheelchair. The measurements that need to be taken include the following:
The height from the top of the person’s head (when sitting in the wheelchair) to the ground.
The width of the wheelchair, from the outside of the wheel’s hubs.
The length of the wheelchair from the back of the rear wheels to the tip of the person’s toes (when sitting.
Having these measurements available are very important when you are deciding on which wheelchair van will work best for you. Believe it or not, communication between you and your Mobility Consultant has a lot more to do when it comes to measuring a wheelchair than you might think. If you are not sure that your measurements are correct, contact one of our highly trained and knowledgeable Mobility Consultant to schedule an appointment to have your wheelchair measured for a wheelchair accessible van.

Ride-Away Attends 2nd Annual Union Leader Show N' Shine Car & Motorcycle Show
07-01-2010
Ride-Away’s Londonderry, NH location attended The 2nd Annual Union Leader Show N’ Shine Car & Motorcycle Show on June 13th at the Union Leader Campus in Manchester, NH.
This unique car show featured over 100 antique, classic, and custom cars and motorcycles, including the Mobility Conquest Wheelchair Accessible Trike and the GoShichi Wheelchair Accessible Truck at the Ride-Away booth. Although there were many custom vehicles at the show, there were no other vehicles like the ones that Ride-Away exhibited.
“It was a great venue to show off unique products to individuals that really appreciate custom vehicles,” says Matt Laughlin, Londonderry’s General Manager. “It might not have been a traditional mobility venue, but the vehicles and products were appreciated more than the traditional custom vehicles that people spend hundreds of hours building.”
The show also featured awards for Best Car of each decade, Best Motorcycle, Best Foreign Car, and “Best of Show” awards. Ride-Away might not have come away with any awards this year, but we did leave the venue with great exposure of our new products, and even some leads! All of the proceeds of the show benefited the Union Leader Charitable Fund and the Santa Fund.

Ride-Away Expert Attends Blue Ribbon Panel in Washington, D.C.
07-01-2010
Ride-Away President/CEO Mark Lore discussed current solutions and technologies, public/private transportation, as well as government/industry support systems with industry leaders.
(PR) Washington, DC: Mark Lore of Ride-Away, a wheelchair accessible van provider, was one of the key speakers at the recent Blue Ribbon Panel entitled “ADA 20/20: Looking Back, Looking Forward on Mobility” in Washington D.C. The panel was hosted by Braun Ability.
The panel brought together a select group of thought leaders in the mobility industry. Some of these people included CEO’s of mobility-related companies, architects of the ADA and physical and occupational therapists. The day was designed to capture the current thinking around what has been done and what needs to be done in order to increase mobility and make the nation more accessible to people with physical disabilities.
“Events like this bring together people from many different groups and organizations, Lore said. “In this case, it was furthering the disabilities rights movement. By bringing people together like this we were able to share visions, goals and needs. We realize that together we can make a greater impact than if we remain separated.”
According to Lore the panel, which took place on June 9, went well and presenters were well-prepared. Some topics included current technology and support systems, identifying gaps of knowledge, behavior and attitudes toward disabilities and the future needs of Americans with disabilities.
“Mark stated that our industry is evolving and is being driven by new and better technology and products for our clients,” Sul Allyn, General Manager of Ride-Away’s Beltsville, MD location said. “Understanding the evolution of the ADA and increasing collaboration between primary and secondary stakeholders is critical and will increase awareness.”
The event commemorated the 20th anniversary of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, which President George Bush signed into law. This act symbolizes the world’s first comprehensive declaration of equality for people with disabilities.
