These two steps can save you from big headaches down the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, let\u2019s take a look at six safety features you should look for when purchasing a wheelchair van.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>1.

Without them, wheelchairs can slide or tip during a sudden stop, putting riders at risk. That\u2019s why every wheelchair accessible van should have a securement system that locks wheelchairs in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MoveMobility vans use a 4-point wheelchair restraint kit for each passenger. This system has four strong straps that attach to the wheelchair, holding it steady during the ride. It\u2019s designed to work with our AutoFloor track system, so you can easily adjust where the restraints go, depending on your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What makes this system great?<\/h3>\n<p><b>Self-tightening straps:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> They stay snug, even if the van moves suddenly. No constant adjustments are needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Reconfigurable setup:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Need to move the wheelchair position? No problem. The system adjusts easily.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Wall storage:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When not in use, the straps store neatly on the van wall, keeping the space clean and organized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Crash-tested safety:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These restraints meet <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/tc.canada.ca\/en\/road-transportation\/safety-standards-vehicles-tires-child-car-seats\/safety-standards-vehicles\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CMVSS safety standards<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, proving they can handle real-world impacts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With proper wheelchair securement, your clients stay safe, your team stays confident, and every trip is smooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2.

If a van\u2019s flooring isn\u2019t built for impact, it can weaken over time or even break apart in a crash.

Lap belt securement system: Extra protection for every passenger<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_212588\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-212588\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-212588 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/P4-3-in-1-Van.jpg\" alt=\"Homme en fauteuil roulant assis dans une camionnette \u00e0 acc\u00e8s lat\u00e9ral de MoveMobility\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/P4-3-in-1-Van.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/P4-3-in-1-Van-400x267.jpg 400w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-212588\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Le plancher non sur\u00e9lev\u00e9 permet aux utilisateurs de fauteuils roulants de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier d'une bonne visibilit\u00e9.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheelchair restraints keep the chair in place, but what about the person in it? A securement system isn\u2019t complete without a lap belt to keep passengers safe during sudden stops or sharp turns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheelchair vans at MoveMobility come with a lap belt securement system that works alongside the 4-point wheelchair restraint kit. This extra layer of protection holds the passenger securely in their wheelchair, reducing the risk of injury in a crash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Why is a lap belt important?<\/h3>\n<p><b>Stops forward movement:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In a sudden stop, the belt keeps the passenger from being thrown forward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Works with wheelchair restraints:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> While the straps hold the wheelchair in place, the lap belt protects the person inside.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Adjustable for comfort:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The belt can be tightened or loosened to fit different passengers properly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without a proper lap belt system, passengers in wheelchairs are at risk of serious injury. With it, they get the same level of safety as any other passenger in a vehicle, because their security matters just as much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>4. First aid kit and fire extinguisher: Be prepared for any emergency<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with the best safety features, emergencies can still happen. That\u2019s why every wheelchair accessible van should have a first aid kit and a fire extinguisher on board. These small but essential tools can make a big difference when seconds matter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Why are these safety features important?<\/h3>\n<p><b>First aid kit:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Minor injuries, like cuts or scrapes, can happen when loading or unloading passengers. A well-stocked first aid kit helps staff handle small medical issues on the spot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Fire extinguisher:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In the rare case of a fire, having a fire extinguisher on hand can stop a small flame from turning into a disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Easy access:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Both the first aid kit and fire extinguisher are mounted in the van, so they\u2019re always within reach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Simple to use:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These emergency tools are designed for quick action, even in stressful situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Required safety standards:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These features help your organization meet safety regulations for passenger transport.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having emergency supplies on hand is about making sure your team is prepared to protect passengers in any situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>5.

That\u2019s why having a sturdy handrail, also called a stanchion, is a must. It gives riders and caregivers extra support when stepping up, down, or assisting with a wheelchair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Why is a handrail important and effective?<\/h3>\n<p><b>Prevents slips and falls:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Passengers have something to hold onto for balance while entering or exiting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Helps caregivers:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Staff assisting clients can use the rail for extra stability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Makes boarding easier:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A secure grip gives passengers more confidence as they step into the van.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Mounted on the door:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Always within reach, exactly where it\u2019s needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Strong and durable:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Designed to handle frequent use without loosening or wearing down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Helps all passengers:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Useful for both ambulatory passengers and those who need assistance moving from a wheelchair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a stanchion handrail, getting into a wheelchair accessible van feels safer and more secure for both passengers and staff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>6.
