Question by Dawn P: Can anyone suggest well known celebrities/characters that use walking aids?
For an assignment I’m going to deliver a ‘light hearted’ power point presentation on mobility aids for the elderly. I need some images of well known characters, actors, celebrities using sticks/frames/scooters etc, can anyone suggest any?

Does anyone know of a way to rent mobility aids?

Posted on 05. Apr, 2011 by Pride Mobility Go Go.

Question by val: Does anyone know of a way to rent mobility aids?
Both myself and my roommate while we can walk some any small distance is a huge challenge. My roommate has severe hip arthritis – so even walking around Walmart is a huge effort. I have fatigue issues that stem from a neurological disorder. I normally would not use a wheelchair – but to go to a museum or other tourist places that do not provide mobility aids, but require a lot of walking it would be nice to be able to rent some sort of assistive devise. Anyone know where I could get something – keep in mind that I only have a car to transport it, not a van or SUV. I’ve tried the seat canes and they really don’t work very well for me. Any ideas anyone?

Many museums will have wheelchairs available to loan to you. Call ahead to reserve them in case they’re in short supply. You might also consider purchasing a walker with wheels. There are hospital supply and nursing home supply stores that can also rent them, but sometimes it’s just cheaper to purchase them outright. The walker can be bought for less than $ 100. Wheelchairs are much more. Make sure they fold and lock easily and securely. Best of luck!
