@genXcrone First thing I learned was that you can often bypass the disability tax by buying something for a stroller instead of a wheelchair and they’re often interchangeable. The cup holder for my mom’s chair was a small fortune and it turns out that she could have bought one designed for a stroller, easily mount it and pay 10% what she did for the one that was made for a chair.
You said you’ve got the ramps and such so I assume you’ve already got doorknobs converted too but if not, levers instead of knobs made a huge difference. Transition strips between carpet and laminate/hardwood. Pads under throw rugs to keep them from sliding.
If there’s still feeling in lower extremities, recovery shoes they make for weight lifting were better than anything we found for chair users.
Swiffers are pretty wasteful but they’re the easiest thing we found to use from a chair. A steam mop is also really good and is easy to maneuver from a chair.
If you can afford to, lowering the counters and shifting storage from hanging cabinets to ones under the counter was phenomenal for her.
While not a house adjustment, if you can afford a PM&R doctor, that was also a huge help and provided a lot of pain relief.
Toilet seat risers were really helpful with her SCI but if you have the money, there are combo bidet/toilets with built in risers that are pretty amazing. My mom is 82 so the mobility she had is degraded and this was a pretty big quality of life purchase.
Husky makes a workbench with a crank to adjust height. When her arms were more usable, this was a great option for a solid adjustable desk without the hefty price tag.
Roll under sinks are completely worth it and make life a lot easier. We also got automatic faucets because her hands don’t work well anymore and they’re surprisingly not super expensive.
That’s what comes to mind so far. I’ll try to remember other things that were helpful.
