Ever been on the search for a home-care product and had no idea where to even start?
A few years ago, I cared for someone who had injured their back. Instant flat-on-back and in bed. Need for items like a bedside commode and walkers was IMMEDIATE. Aye-vay!
Well, here are some of the resources that you can try to help in locating caregiving items:
Resources:
Rehabmart (website link)
Local caregiving organizations
(In our area, one place sold durable equipment and was a great resource.)
American Legion – they will often accept donations and have equipment available
Ebay – who doesn’t love eBay?
Amazon
(I have purchased innumerable items from them – shipped directly to my door! [from bed rails, to walkers, dysphagia items, etc.])
Local drug stores (or online) – CVS, RiteAid, Walgreens, etc.
Sometimes they carry a specific product that others do not carry.
Walmart
(They sometimes carry items you would never expect, and the prices can be more reasonable.)
