Wheelchair Transfer Device

Challenge: A person with paraplegia needed a device in order to transfer from a wheelchair to closer to the ground in order to work in the garden.
Solution: The stool will roll on its back wheels when upright, but sits on legs when tipped down for use. The bottom step slides out so the person can lower himself one step at a time to get down out of his wheelchair, and do the reverse getting back in.
Chapter: Metro-Halifax, Nova Scotia
