With people staying at home more than ever there has been a marked increase in keeping people at home. Whether it’s for themselves or for their loved ones equipment such as bathroom aids bedroom aids and patient lifting hoists are important to ensure that they stay inside their own home more than ever.
However when you consider the price of purchasing all these items it can be quite daunting, which can cause some distress for some people. That’s why here at Active Mobility Systems we’ve decided to introduce our Homecare Packages; packages that contain equipment that we believe are vital to allowing independence and dignity among the elderly and those living with disability.
All of our packages are based upon certain needs that patients might need throughout the day and are sourced from our finest suppliers. Once ordered all of them will be sent out together and if need be installed right in your house. Also for your convenience, all of the product prices in the package already include freight.
