BACKGROUND
Power wheelchairs enhance quality of life by enabling occupation, improving self-esteem and facilitating social interaction. Despite these benefits, the risks associated with power mobility use raise serious concerns in residential facilities.
PURPOSE
As there is no gold standard to assess when a client is unsafe, a two-phase study was conducted to develop client-centred guidelines for power mobility use.
METHOD
In the first phase of the study, presented here, 18 in-depth, qualitative interviews were conducted with a variety of stakeholders, including power mobility users, other residents, staff and family members.
RESULTS
A thematic analysis of the interviews revealed four main themes: 1) the meaning of power mobility, 2) learning the rules of the road, 3) red flags: concerns about safety, and 4) solutions.
PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS
Given the importance of power mobility, safety measures need to address issues of mobility and safety for power mobility drivers and those around them.
背景
电动轮椅通过使人能够从事活动、提升自尊并促进社交互动来提高生活质量。尽管有这些益处，但电动移动设备使用带来的风险在住宅设施中引发了严重关切。
目的
由于在评估客户何时不安全方面没有金标准，因此开展了一项两阶段研究，以制定以客户为中心的电动移动设备使用指南。
方法
在本研究的第一阶段，对包括电动移动设备使用者、其他居民、工作人员和家庭成员在内的各种利益相关者进行了18次深入的定性访谈。
结果
对访谈的主题分析揭示了四个主要主题：1）电动移动设备的意义，2）学习道路规则，3）危险信号：对安全的担忧，4）解决方案。
实践意义
鉴于电动移动设备的重要性，安全措施需要解决电动移动设备驾驶者及其周围人员的移动性和安全问题。
