A staircase wheelchair ramp assembly for expeditiously and safely transporting wheelchair bound occupants down a staircase includes a base platform and a ramp member. The base platform is supported adjacent to a staircase and is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. In the deployed position, the base platform is positioned atop a staircase. The base platform supports inner and outer tracks that are configured to receive and guide inner and outer wheels of the wheelchair along the base platform over the staircase. The ramp member is pivotably coupled to one end of the base platform and is movable between a raised, substantially horizontal position and a lowered position supported on the base platform. The ramp member includes inner tracks that are aligned with the inner tracks of the base platform when the ramp member is in the lowered position.
