Holidays Without Hassle! 

Holidays without hassle! At long last we’re able to meet up with friends, go for a coffee and have a wander around the shops.  One of the other luxuries we can now start thinking about is going on holiday.  Whilst we might not be able to go abroad just yet, there are plenty of places here in the UK to choose from.  From seaside resorts to countryside cottages, having a break is just what we all need.

That said, however, travelling for those who are differently-abled can present a number of issues.  Getting around a town or city, for example, can be difficult for those who experience mobility issues. Long walks in unfamiliar places could easily become tiring.  Chairs may be too low to sit comfortably following a hip replacement.  Beds in hotels and holiday homes are almost always that little bit less comfortable than our own ones at home.

Our Homecare Range – Giving You A Home From Home

How do you solve problems like these to have a holiday without hassle?  Our homecare range can transform your holiday home and provide you with peace of mind, whether you’re away for a week, a few weeks or even longer.  Our hire options are flexible to suit you and your holiday dates.   Best of all, our team can have your equipment set up and ready for you when you arrive. Our courier option means you can have a mobility scooter ready to take with you the next day or delivered to your holiday destination ready for when you arrive. That means your holiday can be stress-free, with the knowledge that all the hard work has already been done, and you can relax.

High Seat & Recliner Chairs

Seating problems are easily solved  – high seat chairs provide a higher seat than most other chairs, making them ideal for those who struggle to sit on a standard sized seat.  Equally, riser recliners are an excellent choice to ensure your comfort and security throughout your stay as they help you stand through gently lifting and tilting you out of your chair.

Homecare Beds

When it comes to sleeping, getting the right bed is very important.  Our range of hospital homecare beds combine the safety and functionality of a hospital bed with the comfort of your bed at home.  Electric adjustments make sure you’re always in the most comfortable position.  Alternatively, we can provide ultra-low floor beds, ensuring safety and reducing the risk of injury from falling our rolling out of bed.

Mobility Scooters

Long or tiring walks are no longer a problem thanks to mobility scooters.  Two very effective types of mobility scooters for holidays and breaks away are folding scooters and boot scooters.  Folding scooters, as the name suggests, simply fold away and are easily stored ready for the next use.  They are slim and ideal for pavements and promenades.  These little scooters are easily stored in the boot of most cars, and can even be stored in the holds of planes or on boats!  Boot scooters are slightly bigger than folding scooters and dismantle into several pieces, making them easily transportable in the boots of most cars.  Perfect if you’re heading for a city break or just need something to get you around the shops whilst you’re on holiday.

Stress-Free Homecare Equipment For Holidays Without Hassle

We also have showerchair commodes and bath lifts available for hire to make bathing a breeze, taking out any unnecessary hassle in the bathroom whilst ensuring dignity is maintained.  Along with these, we have a range of hoists which can be assembled ready for your holiday, making it easy to transfer patients from one room to another. Likewise, if you’re going away with the kids, our paediatric range suits a wide variety of children.

Wherever you go this summer, remember you can hire from us on a short or long-term basis.  Whether it’s a folding mobility scooter to get you zipping out for a cream tea or a homecare bed to make sure you get a good night’s sleep in your cosy cottage, we’ll have what you need.  Best of all, we can set it up ready for you when you get to your destination.

Now all you need to do is book that holiday!
