A vehicle lift is usually prescribed for a veteran receiving mobility equipment such as a scooter or power chair. Vehicle lifts come in 3 types – exterior (attached to a receiver hitch) – hybrid often used for a van or suv – boom lift usually installed in the bed of a truck or van. All vehicle lifts are weather proofed and operated electrically for ease of use. A swing away frame is often used for qualifying vehicles to allow access to the trunk area when an exterior lift is installed. During installation, the prescribed mobility scooter or power chair is fitted to the lift and secured with easy to use lock down devices.

Stair lifts help persons navigate dangerous stairs in the home. Different stair lifts are used for different applications including straight stair cases, curved and more. Curved stair lifts can provide seamless access to stair cases with a turn or multiple landings. Straight stair lifts may also include a folding track to improve access when landing next to a doorway or hall. All stair lifts come with back up batteries in case of power outages. Seating includes a swivel for easy transition at landing points.

Veterans with mobility equipment often need accessible ramping for entry points to the home. Modular ramping is the most prescribed providing ADA safe surfaces and platforms for wheelchair, scooter, power chair access. A modular ramp can be configured to your front, rear or interior needs at home. All modular ramp systems come with handrails and transition plates for entry and landing points to provide safe mobility and access.

Sometimes a home cannot accommodate a modular ramp system due to length or configuration. In this case, a vertical platform lift is the perfect option for persons using a wheelchair, scooter or power chair to access their home. A vertical platform lift works as an elevator to lift the person and their equipment to the desired access level to the home. All vertical platform lifts are operated electrically and include safety gates and landing transitions.
