We Deliver!

Did you know that gas prices are averaging $3.63 per gallon in Oregon?

Did you know that we also spend almost half of our leisure time in our cars running errands?

Running errands can be a drag, especially when your time is limited, or if you just want to enjoy yourself with a fun activity instead of driving around in your car from place to place, wasting gas.

Never take Grandpa to the movies.
If you do, be prepared to park him and his Walker up front.
He will want ice cream.
He will want a Diet Coke.
He will comment to Grandma THE ENTIRE TIME!
Grandma is no better, she will drop her keys,
then proceed to look for them under her seat with a flashlight.
Yeah, Good Times.

Cell Phone Only Calls Jimmy-Walkers Are Simple

My brother Jimmy, gave my mom a cell phone that he programmed with all of our numbers.  Only one problem, my mom claims the phone only calls Jimmy.  

The simple phone he gave her, is too simple. As a Senior, this is not technology that she embraces. She couldn't figure out how to use it, even with the instruction book.  Jimmy kept telling Mom he got her the easiest phone to use.

I tried to help her.  Mom's phone gave me a run for my money.  Here is the issue.  The big button in the middle, is actually TWO buttons.  That was the problem.  You have to push the little silver RING around the big BUTTON to get to other people's numbers.  Simple.

That's why I like the Invacare Dual Release Walker from Pacific Medical Supply.  No buttons, no gadgets, no fancy parts or things to program.  Simple.

The Invacare Adult Paddle Release Walker features a wide, deep frame with a large number of height adjustments and a composite lower side brace for added stability. This walker is light and easy to lift and maneuver. The paddle release mechanism makes folding and closing the walker easy and is ideal for users with dexterity issues. This walker has a 300lbs weight capacity.

• Composite lower side brace stiffens walker frame and adds stability.
• Folding mechanisms are easy to reach from a seated position.
• Lighter and easier to lift and maneuver.
• PVS handgrips wear longer and provide greater comfort.
• Walkers fold easily for transport or storage.
