Special Needs EquipmentSpecial Needs Equipment

Getting the right piece of mobility equipment is like getting your first car - it's a ticket to freedom and independent living. We offer a range of special needs equipment to help you get around, from wheelchairs and walkers to bath bars and benches.

The program, except for retail items, is fully funded by Saskatchewan Health and operated under contract by the Saskatchewan Abilities Council. You must have a valid Saskatchewan Health Services Card to use this program. Persons covered by the Saskatchewan Income Plan, Supplementary Health and children covered by Family Health Benefits may receive retail items at no cost based on a requisition from an authorized healthcare professional.

The equipment falls into three categories: items that must be requisitioned by a professional, items you can buy yourself, and third party purchases, such as a government department. We also offer repair services on special Needs Equipment on loan and, when possible, your own private equipment.

Repair and Maintenance Services
If your special needs equipment needs repair, there's a good chance we can fix it. Our technicians will repair our loaned equipment at no cost to you. There may be a shipping charge, depending on your location.

Please note that we are unable to offer repairs to scooters. Electric wheelchairs under the SAIL program, however, are covered.

Special Needs Equipment and services are available through our Yorkton, Regina, Swift Current and Prince Albert depots as well as Provincial Services and Central Warehouse in Saskatoon.

Call us to make an appointment.
