DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT... What is it and who needs it?

DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT, commonly referred to as DME , is any medical equipment used in the home to aid in a better quality of living.

So if DME can aid in a better quality of living you need only ask yourself…do I need a better quality of living?  For most people the answer is YES !

A few simple questions is all you need to ask yourself to determine if DME can be of use to you.

What would make my home a safer place to live?  Safety equipment such as Grab Bars, Toilet Seat Elevators, Commodes, Bath Seats, Transfer Benches, Hand Held Showers, Balance Assist Bars, and Bed Handles are just a few products that make your home a safer place.

How can my home be more accessible? Portable or built in ramps are the ideal solution or maybe something as simple as a well placed grab bar by an entrance or steps.

Do I need help at home performing daily tasks? There are numerous aids for daily living that cover everything from dressing, grooming, eating and preparing meals to reading a book or answering the telephone.

Is there anything that can help me be more active and mobile? Depending on your health and mobility level DME products such as Transport Wheelchairs, Standard Wheelchairs, Power Wheelchairs, Canes, Walkers, Rollators, and Scooters, can help you stay active.

Can I improve on my overall comfort at home? A wide variety of foam and gel cushions exist to make you comfortable in bed or sitting. A Power Lift chair is the ultimate in comfort and gives you the help you may need to come to a standing position.
