Handicapped Products & Supplies

From the moment you wake up, to the moment you go to sleep, you have to consider what handicapped products are necessary to make that transition as painless and as comfortable as possible. The best handicapped equipment are the ones that help you throughout the day. Because of this you need to determine your specific needs based on your disability. Is getting out of the bed a huge burden? Do you wake up frequently throughout the night to go to the bathroom? Maybe you need a handicapped roller walker to help with your mobility?

Which Handicap Supplies Do You Need?

Write out a daily tasks list. Keep it simple at first. For example, most people in the morning, wake up, go to the bathroom, eat breakfast and then go to work. Do you require assistance when you get out of bed? If so, you might need something similar to a hospital bed that is handicap accessible and can be lowered to suit your needs. Do you need support in the form of handicap grab bars when you need to shower? Or you may require a set of crutches alongside your bed.

When you use the bathroom, is a wheelchair necessary because you are unable to stand for long periods at a time? Consider building something more permanent like a handicapped shower, where all the shower handles are within reach and there is a bench for sitting and ramp for accessibility.

These only scratch the surface of your needs. The details are the hardest part to figure out. Something as simple as a mirror in a bathroom would need to be lowered for wheelchair bound. Visualize yourself going through the motions of your daily functions and find out the details this way.
