If you or someone you know has mobility problems, you will know that day-to-day activities become just that bit more difficult. There are mobility scooters and power chairs available to help people get around, but what about when it comes to necessary activities such as bathing and showering?
Any activity involving water is fraught with danger, and this risk may be increased if you are disabled or have mobility problems. However, just by installing a simple and easy to use disability living aid such as the Days Dento Bathlift, these everyday tasks become much quicker and easier to complete, not to mention being more enjoyable.
The seat and back rest of the Days Dento Bathlift is ergonomically designed with your comfort in mind, providing you with adequate support when getting in and out of the bath. It can be easily controlled via a lightweight and waterproof hand control, and in-built safety controls mean you can relax and enjoy your bath.
Further features of the Days Dento include:
• Easy to clean and hygienic removable seat and back pads
• Simple dismantle procedure – can be separated into two pieces using a lever, for easy transportation and storage
• User friendly battery charger
• Slimline design
• Smooth operation

There are many advantages to owning a power chair over a standard self-propelled wheelchair, especially for those with limited upper body strength or other mobility problems. Models such as the Pride LX electric wheelchair or the Drive Mambo 363 power chair give you more independence and freedom, whilst also allowing you to travel longer distances comfortably.
Before buying an electric-powered wheelchair, however, there are a few things you need to do in preparation:
• Make sure your home is suitable for a power chair – consider aspects such as door width and access. Also, if your home is small or has cramped spaces, you may need to go for mid-wheeled power chairs for more manoeuvrability.
• Transportability – If you travel a lot, it is recommended that you for a transportable model such as the Pride Go portable power chair, as you will be able to disassemble it to fit into a car boot and put it back together again easily at your destination.
• Getting the best deal – Cost is an important factor when choosing electric wheelchairs. You can get a great deal by shopping online, and a number of companies will even deliver and assemble the mobility aid for you.
• Warranty – Always choose wheelchairs that come with a warranty; most reputable dealers will offer you one.

It’s a recognised fact that rise and recliner chairs are good for users with mobility problems or other medical ailments, but they have not also been associated with high-class style and luxury. However, an increasing number of manufacturers are now offering rise and recliner chairs to appeal to those with stylish, contemporary homes.
A particular example of this kind of design is the Drive Sven rise and recliner chair. Proving that there’s no excuse for rise and recliners not to be as attractive as other types of furniture; this model has a chic, modern design and is craftsman-upholstered in luxurious leather, coming in dark chocolate brown, burgundy, cream or black shades.
You needn’t think you have to sacrifice comfort and functionality for the sake of appearance with the Drive Sven however; its design is soft, comfortable and ergonomic for full support. It has a generous maximum weight capacity of 27 ½ stone, and operates both smooth and quietly.
The benefits of single motor rise and recliners
The Drive Sven rise and recliner is operated on a single motor, which means that the movement of the back rest and the footrest are synchronised. This one simple operation is smooth and quiet and makes the chair incredibly easy to use.

As mobility devices such as wheelchairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters have quickly become an essential part of many people’s daily lives, it makes sense that you would want to adapt them to suit your day-to-day needs. Although they are frequently used in the home, most people use mobility devices to get out and about for excursions and shopping trips.
Luckily, there a wide range of accessories you can choose from to fully kit out your mobility scooter or power chair ready for shopping trips or any other activities. The most popular of these is bags and other storage options.
Bags for mobility scooters
You can get bags for your mobility device in all shapes and sizes. You can choose from:
• Handy and portable mini mobility bags that can be easily accessed at all times. These stylish accessories are perfect for those with on-the-go lifestyles who also use smaller mobility devices.
• Full-size mobility scooter bags that fit neatly onto the headrests of mobility scooters and powerchairs , the frames of rollators or the push handles of standard wheelchairs
Other storage options
Thanks to some innovative thinking, you can now buy crutch/walking stick holders and bags. These can either be used on their own for travelling purposes or you can fit them neatly onto wheelchairs, mobility scooters and powerchairs to keep crutches or walking sticks out of the way until you need to use them.

If you’re looking for a new power chair that can offer you the appealing combination of performance, style and manoeuvrability and at a reasonable price; the product that immediately springs to mind is the Pride Jazzy Go 2 power chair.

Choosing your new mobility scooter is a very personal decision. Whichever model and type of scooter you choose needs to be personally tailored to your specific needs and medical requirements, so take your time making your mind up. The following information should make the differences between mobility scooter types clearer:
Travel mobility scooters
Transportable mobility scooters are specially designed to be compact, for storage or so that they will fit easily into a car boot for travelling. For this reason, travel scooters are very easy to disassemble and reassemble.
This sort of scooter is also excellent for use indoors, as their compact size gives them maximum manoeuvrability in tight spaces.
Mid-sized four-wheeled mobility scooters
These scooters are perfectly suitable for indoor use, but it is outdoors that they really excel. Due to a long battery life, mid-sized scooters can travel for longer distances without running out of power, and four wheels means optimum stability.
Larger, heavy-duty mobility scooters
These types of mobility scooters are specially designed for users with a heavier weight. They have a larger weight capacity, are more powerful due to rear-wheel drive, and have excellent anti-tip capabilities.
