There are a number of people who suffer from limited mobility, especially in the winter months. It is hard to sit around and watch a loved one struggle with the fact that their body will not allow them to get around the way they used to. Winter tends to be a time that people retreat to the indoors, but it is more important than ever to keep fit and stay active during these months. Lucky for everyone there is something that can be done to help these loved ones get their independence back. Regardless of what your aging loved one needs, chances are good it can be obtained on a rental. Because there are so many medical conditions that hinder people from getting around, the mobility market is always growing. The good news is this rapid growth is helping more and more people to lead a happier life by giving them supplies that help give them a better life quality.
In Canada the top problems are pain, mobility and flexibility. It is estimated that 11% of the adults in Canada are suffering from one of these types of disability, with 9.7% suffering from pain, 7.6 % suffering from issues with flexibility and 7.2 % suffering from issues of mobility (1). So what do people do when they need mobility products? Often people rent them; partially because this equipment can be very expensive to buy, although it should be noted that oftentimes insurance plans help with the costs. As you can see, there are many benefits to renting a mobility product, such as rollator walkers and other mobility products.
If the idea of rollator walkers is new to you, keep in mind that these walkers have many options that can help people feel better about their condition and get around better too. This walker will help your loved one walk with a feeling of pride. These walkers are light weight and have sturdy wheels too. You can push them or allow your loved ones to use them in the way that is best for them. Walkers and scooters are not the only things that you can rent; you can also use our service for crutches rentals. Let’s face it, who wants to buy crutches? What do you do once you have purchased a set and are finished with them? Renting these items makes everyone’s life easier.
Regardless of what products you or your loved one need to make life easier, we are able to help you. Our goal is to help people improve their quality of life with the highest quality products. So, if you need supplies now or in the future, please contact us at Vital Mobility Medical Supplies Inc. for all your mobility needs.
