The woman has said that her electric wheelchair stops inexplicably about twice a week.

Last summer, she reported that the electric wheelchair suddenly stopped working when she was in the middle of a road with intersecting trams - a life-threatening situation.

The better, she should then have received help to get away.

- In the event of such serious errors, we place an emergency order to the Assistive Technology Center in Mölndal.

They then have a certain number of hours to rectify the error, says Björn Erkholm, unit manager at Närhälsan Mölnlycke.

Works as a link

Local health is a "trust prescriber" and acts as a link between the individual and the Assistive Technology Center.

The electric wheelchair continued to falter.

As recently as March 8 this year, the woman reported that the tipping function was stuck, that the lights were not turned on and that the switch for the lights did not work.

- Yes, there have been repeated problems also in retrospect with this wheelchair, says Björn Erkholm.

Incident report was written

In the end, he decided to send an incident report to both the manufacturer and IVO.

None of the recipients have had time to respond yet.

According to the report, the patient was exposed to stress and the risk of being hit by a tram.

After the latest incident, the woman was bedridden until the electric wheelchair was repaired and returned.

According to the report, she became "cold, taken and tired."

For natural reasons, the woman wanted to change her electric wheelchair, but according to the Assistive Technology Center, there was no one else who could meet her needs.

In addition, it was not considered that the electric wheelchair could be sentenced, which was another reason to say no to a change.

SVT Nyheter Väst has sought a responsible manager at the Assistive Technology Center.
