Vancouver Power Wheelchair Rentals and Sales: Easy Access with Direct Billing by Pacific Blue Cross
At Yaletown Medical Supplies, we believe in restoring people's independence and mobility. If you are recovering from surgery, living with a long-term disability, or caring for a friend or family member who is not very mobile, a power wheelchair can bring life-altering independence. We are happy to provide power wheelchair rentals and sales in our Vancouver medical supplies retail store, as well as direct billing for Pacific Blue Cross members.
Why a Power Wheelchair?
A power wheelchair, or electric wheelchair, is an ideal choice for individuals who require mobility assistance but may not have the strength required to propel a manual wheelchair. Power wheelchairs give convenience, assistance, and comfort. They are most commonly used by:
Elderly people with lowered mobility
Recovering patients of surgery or injury
Patients who have diseases such as multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury
Patients who need longer-term care for daily mobility
Power wheelchairs, with their sophisticated maneuverability, height-adjustable seating, and rechargeable batteries, allow the rider full freedom to move indoors and outdoors.
