Handicap Accommodations

(Michigan)

I have searched many places and am unable to locate handicap accommodations for our pool. Our son is in a wheelchair and we have an above ground pool we would like to have him enjoy - problem being, both his legs are non-weight bearing. He uses a slide board (a board that is apx 1' x 2' that he places underneath him on his wheelchair seat and then the other end is placed on the location he wants to get to and he slides across it). Any ideas of how to accommodate him in a pool and/or who sells pool accessories for this?


Hi. There are many versions of the pool lift, like shown below, available. I am not sure if they make a special one for above ground pools or not, but any of them could easily be adapted to a pool deck. A deck with a ramp and a lift system would work or you could even sink your pool in the ground in order to use the lift.
