Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Quantum Scoot Control system?
The Quantum Scoot Control is an attendant-operated control system that allows a caregiver or assistant to drive a compatible power wheelchair on behalf of the wheelchair user. It provides an alternative to having the wheelchair user operate the standard joystick themselves. Available through LCS Ltd in Ireland, Scoot Control can be useful when a wheelchair user requires assistance with manoeuvring or travelling through their environment.
Who can benefit from using a Scoot Control system on a power wheelchair?
Scoot Control can benefit wheelchair users who need assistance with driving due to limited strength, restricted movement, fatigue or other functional requirements. It allows a caregiver, family member or support worker to manage wheelchair movement when independent driving is not possible or appropriate. The system can be particularly useful in care environments and during everyday activities where an attendant needs to guide the wheelchair user.
How does attendant control differ from a standard power wheelchair joystick?
A standard power wheelchair joystick is operated by the wheelchair user to control direction and speed. An attendant control system provides a separate way for a caregiver or assistant to operate the wheelchair. This can make it easier to support users who cannot independently manage the driving controls. The appropriate setup depends on the wheelchair model, the user’s abilities and the level of assistance required.
Can Scoot Control be used alongside the wheelchair user's own controls?
Attendant control systems are designed to support assisted wheelchair operation, but the available control arrangements depend on the specific wheelchair electronics and configuration. Before installation, LCS should confirm whether Scoot Control can be used alongside the user’s existing joystick and how control is transferred between the user and attendant. This helps ensure the wheelchair is configured appropriately for the intended use.
Is Scoot Control suitable for use in care homes and healthcare settings?
An attendant-operated power wheelchair control can be useful in care homes, rehabilitation environments and other healthcare settings where staff may need to assist residents or patients with mobility. It allows an authorised attendant to guide a compatible power wheelchair while the user remains seated. Suitability depends on the wheelchair configuration, the care environment, staff training and the individual’s mobility and positioning requirements.
