Choosing Mobility Equipment

Wheelchairs, powerchairs, hospital beds, walking aids – the list goes on! In an ever-changing world, mobility equipment must keep up with the needs and wants of an ever-changing customer base.  The sort of wheelchair that person A wants is not necessarily what person B will find useful.  Short-term conditions, such as a broken leg, are very different to long-term conditions like MS.  Mobility equipment has to be both all-inclusive whilst specialist at the same time.

At Mobility Hire, it’s our privilege to be a leading supplier of mobility equipment in the UK, serving a huge variety of care homes, hospitals and, of course, individuals.  Our commitment to our customers is simple: to provide the best equipment possible along with second-to-none customer service and advice.

However, the world of mobility equipment can be a daunting place.  Deciding which piece of equipment, how long you need it for and whether it’s right for you are all questions which need answering.

 

 

 

That’s why we’ve provided guides to our wheelchairs, mobility scooters and powerchairs.  These are three of our most-often enquired about products, so we’ve gone through and answered some of the most frequently asked questions.  You can find our Choosing Guides here

You can request a brochure from us too – from wheelchairs to bathroom aids, these are full of helpful information about our range of products.  These handy brochures are also easy to understand, making sure you’re equipped with all the knowledge you need before hiring a product from us.  They explain in plain English what our equipment does and how it can help you.

 

 

 

Along with this, the top of each category on our website provides not only an outline of the category itself but also a description of the types of products within each one and how each could be helpful to you.  So, for example, in our Beds category, we explain what a homecare hospital bed is and its functions along with the different types available and how they suit different mobility needs.
