Derbyshire's all-age Wheelchair Service provides a comprehensive service for people with long-term mobility problems (greater than 6 months) and associated postural needs characterised over four levels (low, medium, high and specialist). People can be referred at any point in their care pathway by a range of trained professionals and re-referrals are accepted, including patient self-referrals back into the service as required for reassessment should their needs change.

The local community paediatric occupational therapy team currently delivers the specialist occupational therapy input to children's wheelchair services for North Derbyshire and Hardwick CCG young people aged 0-18 (or age 19 when attending a special school), as attached in the Pathway Document. Approximately 135 referrals are expected over 12 months (at a 25/75 split between new and re-assessment respectively).
