Artichoke Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 A family member is recovering from surgery and needs a walker. We're looking for a walker that's sturdy enough for her to take to the bathroom and use to steady herself as she gets off the toilet. Any recommendations?

Momof3littles Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Can't her medical team give you a RX and you can go through a durable medical equipment vendor? They do need to be appropriately fitted,and in certain instances you need different features. You also want to be sure it is used correctly. For example, when getting up from a chair, push off of the chair's arms or seat vs holding onto the walker to stand up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I purchased a shower wheelchair from Amazon. It's been exactly what we need and the reviews left me feeling prepared for the purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
