We received the nicest letter from one of our customers recently! 🥰

🎉⁉ WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE ⁉🎉

We asked our team members what their favorite piece of adaptive equipment is to recommend to their customers. Here is Ashley's response!

"The CAR CANE! It can be so difficult to get in and out of cars these days, especially as we get older and our cars get smaller! You just quickly hook it into the side of the car door and push up on it to help lift yourself up. Plus, it's small enough to store in your glove box or center console. A great and affordable invention that a lot folks haven't heard of."

🎉⁉ WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE ⁉🎉

We asked our team members what their favorite piece of adaptive equipment is to recommend to their customers. Here is Bri's response!

"My favorite type of adaptive equipment falls under the category of mobility aids (walker, cane, etc.) Functional mobility is an ADL and it is also how people access other occupations. For people that need added stability, a mobility aid is a great way to improve occupational participation and engagement."
