The Benefits of the Equipment
For patients with disabilities or who simply are growing older, the benefits of mobility equipment can not be overstated. From moving around the home to navigating outside environments, it’s crucial that people have the tools they need to move and thrive. Wheelchairs and walkers are the two main types of mobility equipment in use today, with each category having myriad options and accessories to choose from.
Renting vs. Buying
Deciding when it would be best to rent a wheelchair or walker versus buying one is both a financial and medical decision. For individuals, it’s important to consult both your physician and insurance company when making the choice between full purchase and rental.
Short Term vs. Long Term Rentals
Short-term renting is fantastic for those who have a temporary disability or would like to try out a particular piece of equipment without a long-term commitment. Longer-term rentals are also useful for these purposes, but can sometimes be more expensive than an outright purchase. As stated above, clients should consult numerous sources when deciding what is best for their unique circumstances.
Which Mobility Device is Right for You?
The type of home medical equipment that you may need will always be dependent on your unique condition and needs. While some people are able to use a simple walker, others may need more heavy-duty equipment like a powered wheelchair. By talking with your physician and our team of experts, you can get a better idea of what would work best for you.
Types of Wheelchairs
Manual
Manual wheelchairs are powered by the user or by someone manually pushing the wheelchair. They are cheaper on average than powered wheelchairs, but take more energy to operate.
Power
Powered wheelchairs allow users to access mobility without having to manually move the wheelchair themselves.
Types of Walkers
Types of Walkers
Classic
Classic walkers do not have wheels and are great for those who need walkers but do not need them to roll. They also tend to be a cheaper option than other types of walkers, which is great for clients on a budget.
Rollators
Rollators, as the name suggests, have wheels that allow them to roll on surfaces. They typically come in two-wheeled and four-wheeled configurations and can come with a variety of accessories.
Knee Walkers
Knee walkers allow customers to kneel on their walkers and roll around, which allows people more comfortable as they move. Similar to rollators, knee walkers make use of special wheels to maximize a patient’s mobility options.
Other Features to Consider
Seating
If you will be in your wheelchair for long periods of time, it’s important that the seating of your chair is optimal. Seating is one of the primary factors when it comes to comfort and overall accessibility.
Wheel
For wheelchairs and rollators, one of the most important components is the wheel. There are a variety of wheels to choose from, each being tailored to a specific set of needs and environments.
Power Component
Depending on factors like your body type and type of mobility equipment, you may need a specific power component to match your needs.
Accessories
To personalize your mobility equipment to best suit you, it’s important to look into the variety of accessories available for wheelchairs and walkers.
