Bariatric Devices and Aids

For those larger and heavier than average people 

The term 'bariatric' is frequently used to refer to those people who are exceptionally overweight or obese. It can also be applied to people who are genetically significantly larger and heavier than the average person.

Extreme overweight (morbid obesity), from whatever cause(s), can lead to medical conditions which may cause the person to become short of breath, tire quickly, and have difficulty walking, with joint pain, and restricted movement of arms and legs; making daily activities such as dressing, toileting and showering extremely difficult, severely limiting a person’s ability to perform household and community activities.

If you are significantly heavier or larger than average, then this is where you need to start your search for the right aid to help you regain your mobility and independence.

Range Of Equipment
There is a wide range of disability equipment available, especially designed for bariatric people, including:

  • Manual & Powered Wheelchairs
  • Scooters
  • Bariatric Walking Frames
  • Hoists (Lifters) and Slings
  • Bariatric Bath Seats & Shower Chairs
  • Bariatric Over Toilet Frames
  • Bariatric Toilet Seat Raisers
  • Bariatric wheelchairs and rollators
  • Weighing Devices
  • Electrically Operated Beds
  • Recliner Lounge Chairs With Electric Lift

It is essential you ensure whatever aid you need is just right for you.

For example, it's no fun being scrunched up for hours all day in a wheelchair that's too small, or is difficult to manoeuver, either for the 'sufferer' or the carer.

Here at MobilityRentals we take pride in making your comfort our first priority. We will discuss your needs with you or your carer(s) to ensure you are completely happy with the aid we provide. And, if you find you aren't happy, we'll keep trying until you are.
