Here's some helpful information regarding the sales tax on lift chairs in Manitoba. In certain cases, lift chairs purchased for medical reasons may be eligible for a full GST exemption. To ensure this applies, a doctor's prescription confirming the medical necessity of the chair is required. Once this is provided, the chair can be tax-exempt, which means no sales tax would be applied—a welcome benefit for individuals seeking comfort and mobility.

It is important to emphasize that mobility aids are not exclusively intended for the elderly. Individuals of all ages may benefit from the use of mobility aids under the following circumstances:
• During recovery from spinal cord injuries
• Following fractures, to reduce weight-bearing on the healing bone
• Post-stroke, as weakness can elevate the risk of falls

Additionally, mobility aids are advantageous for:
• Elderly individuals at high risk of falls
• Persons diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease

Mobility aids assist individuals in regaining strength and confidence while helping to prevent injuries.

For further information regarding which mobility aid may best suit your needs, please visit us at Rolling Spokes, 215 6th Street.
