Yes, many passengers travel with oxygen during wheelchair transportation when it is part of their prescribed medical care. Portable oxygen concentrators, oxygen cylinders, and other approved oxygen equipment can often be accommodated, provided transportation providers are informed in advance when scheduling the trip.
Sharing information about oxygen equipment before transportation allows providers to prepare the appropriate vehicle and ensure sufficient space for both the passenger and their medical equipment. Accurate communication also helps transportation providers better understand any additional assistance that may be needed during the journey.
Planning ahead helps create a safe and comfortable transportation experience for passengers who require oxygen therapy while traveling.
