Wheelchair referral support that turns functional evidence into a clearer specialist referral.
For care homes, families and professionals who need help documenting mobility, posture, transfers, environment and daily outcomes before referral to the locally commissioned NHS wheelchair service.
We strengthen the referral. The wheelchair service assesses and prescribes.
Thrive Better Living does not issue, prescribe or replace an NHS wheelchair service. We provide a professional functional review and referral-support report that the appropriate referrer can use alongside the local pathway.
Functional mobility picture
Indoor and outdoor mobility, transfers, propulsion ability, fatigue, falls history, participation and carer support.
Posture and pressure prompts
Observable sitting presentation, tolerance, asymmetry, skin-risk information and reasons specialist seating input may be needed.
Environment and access
Doorways, turning space, storage, transport, transfer approach and practical barriers documented for the specialist team.
Referral evidence pack
A concise report, relevant measurements, desired outcomes and supporting information for the authorised referrer or local service.
Care-home coordination
Gather information from the person, family and care team so the specialist appointment starts with a more complete picture.
Implementation support
After specialist provision, we can help update transfer techniques and care plans without altering the prescribed wheelchair setup.
Use the form for the person’s own commissioned area.
Wheelchair eligibility is determined locally. Start with AJM’s service finder, confirm the person’s GP area and use only the referral form and criteria shown for that service.
The North Yorkshire and York documents below are provided as a convenient official resource for that area only. They should not be used as a national form or for Hull and East Riding without confirmation from the local wheelchair service.
A practical service for complex or incomplete referrals.
Residents with changing mobility, posture, transfer or seating needs.
Support gathering evidence and navigating the correct local pathway.
Functional reports that connect wheelchair use with safe care delivery.
Pathway support, backlog preparation and better-quality referral information.
