Hospital and Medical Visits in Boston: Wheelchair and Transport Chair Rental Tips

Boston is home to some of the best hospitals in the world, and families from all over New England drive in for appointments, treatments and visits. Those days are long: parking garages, long hallways between buildings, and hours in waiting rooms. For anyone who tires quickly, a transport chair or wheelchair makes a hard day easier.

Why bring your own chair

Hospitals often have wheelchairs at the entrance, but availability varies, and they usually cannot leave the building. Having your own means you are covered from the car to the appointment and back, and for a meal nearby.

Transport chair vs wheelchair

For hospital visits with a companion, a lightweight transport chair is easiest to lift and folds small. If the patient wants to move on their own, rent a standard wheelchair. Compare them in transport chair vs wheelchair.

Ongoing treatment

For weeks of appointments, rent by the week. See weekly and monthly rental.
