In this Spectrum Bay News 9 feature, our President, Mike Laky, shares how our VELA chairs provide stability, safety, and support in critical moments. Falls remain a leading cause of injury-related deaths among older adults, and the right equipment can make all the difference in preventing accidents and improving quality of life.

𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐢𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐄𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐌𝐞 🥰

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about romance—it’s about connection, kindness, and making someone’s day a little brighter. A small act of love can mean the world ❤️

Here are some simple ways to spread love today:

💌 Check in on someone who might need it – A quick message or call can mean so much.
💌 Leave a kind note in a public space – You never know who needs a little encouragement.
💌 Create a playlist of feel-good songs and share it – Music has a way of bringing people closer.
💌 Send a handwritten letter – A surprise in the mailbox is always special.
💌 Cook a favorite meal for someone (or with them virtually!) – Because food = love.

It’s the little things that make the biggest difference 💕 How are you celebrating love today?
