MOBILITY & ACCESSIBILITY

Our mobility tends to decrease as we age and moving around can be quite a task. In addition to growing old, there are so many other factors that can lead to a reduction in mobility, such as injuries or health problems. There are many products that help people with limited mobility, move around freely and independently.

Mobility aids are assistive devices suitable for senior adults, injured people or people with decreased mobility due to other health issues, that help them carry on their daily routine without being dependent on caretakers. Seniority has curated a wide range of mobility aids specially designed to suit your requirements. These include wheelchairs, walkers & rollators, walking sticks and crutches.

WHEN TO USE MOBILITY AIDS?

A mobility aid is suitable for people with temporary or permanent conditions that affect their mobility, balance and weight bearing. Some mobility aids can be used by people with sufficient upper body strength and coordination such as walkers and crutches, while other mobility aids like wheelchairs are more suited for people who need assistance in manoeuvring them or those who can self-propel.

A few examples of situations where mobility aids are useful are:

Standard wheelchair is the most basic type of wheelchair and usually comes with an option to fold when not in use or while travelling. This mobility equipment can be manoeuvred by the user if they have sufficient upper body strength and can also be used by those who need assistance.

    Eg: Folding Wheelchair Liberty Li Premium – Nasonta
