A wheelchair assessment consists of multiple components, the order of which will depend on the nature of the user’s needs and the specific service delivery setting. The overall assessment process should consider and reflect the domains and classification structure of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health: Body Structure and Functions; Activities and Participation; and Environment and Current Technology. Within each of these domains, a number of items should be explored with the user in order to gain a full understanding of what the user wants and needs in a wheelchair to meet their goals. Depending on the clinical judgment of the professionals and the complexity of the user’s needs including diagnosis, prognosis, and environmental considerations, some domains may require additional assessment while other domains may require only a screening and no further exploration.
