Question
I would like to know how this works.
Answer
Dear Cyndi,
Thank you for the inquiry. In order to use the U-Sling, Padded, you would have to purchase a lift. We have manual and electric lifts. It basically cradles the patient (swing like) and places in and out of a bed or chair.

Question
Is this mattress reversable? Is there any place where I may test this mattress before buying? I want my Grandmother to be comfortable and the hospital bed mattress she has now is too soft and sags to the point she slides out of bed. Thank you for your help
Answer
Hi Anne:
Thank you for your inquiry. Before we can answer your questions, it may be worth while to undertand the condition of your grandmother, ie her height, weight, physical condition, how much time she spends in bed, can she move around on her own. Also, we would need to know if she is currently in a standard hospital or home health care bed, or the dimensions of her current bed. If you can answer these questions, we will be happy to assist you with selecting the most appropriate

Question
I need your help,asap!! Please let me know if you have any scub set with a muted green color i.e., seaspray or a sand color but it'd have to have brown trim, not black, thanks soo much!Give me alot of choice if possible.
Answer
Alison,
Thank you for your inquiry. We do have several scrub options, however the "trim" is a color coding relating to the size. We have two color coding systems:
Angelica Color Coding offers size Medium with brown and XXXLarge with tan neck and pant ties.
Our second color coding offers size XLarge with tan and XXXLarge with brown neck and pant ties.
The ComfortEase Unisex Reversible Drawstring Scrub Pants and ComfortEase Unisex Reversible Scrub Top With Set In Sleeve will be our scrub options with the seaspray color and brown trim on Medium and tan trim on XXXL.
Please feel free to place an order on our website or on the phone with a member of our customer service team. Thank you!

Can you modify any of the commode chairs? I need a commode for my sister with a high back with a belt at the hips and one across the chest. The rail on the side would need to lower.

Thank you your inquiry. Commode chairs are designed to specific safety guidelines. Therefore the chairs themselves can not be modified. A number of commodes we offer have a drop side arm and most can be height adjusted. We also offer medical safety belts and harnesses.

I am traveling to Europe and will be walking a lot- I have a really bad leg and back and wonder if this seat-cane will be the best to assist me. I know we will be walking and standing on this tour and need help. I don't want to use a wheelchair if at all possible. Thanks
Answer
A sitting cane may work for your needs. You may also want to consider a rollator, which offers more support during walking, along with a resting seat and storing pouch. It is compact and many weight under 10 pounds. All items are available for immideate shipping. Please contact us for more info.
