Small Aids Can Make a Big Difference Daily

 

living aids cover a huge range of products, but they all have one thing in common: they are designed to make everyday life a little easier.You might be finding it difficult to get in and out of the bath, struggling to bend down and pick something up, needing a little extra support when standing, or simply looking for a more comfortable way to sit or sleep.

 

Often, there is a surprisingly simple solution.

 

At Fen Mobility Centre, you can see and try a wide range of daily living aids before you buy. Rather than choosing something from a picture online and hoping it works, our team can help you find an option that is suitable for you, your home and the task you are trying to make easier.

 

Daily Living Aids for the Bathroom

 

The bathroom is one of the most common places where a little extra equipment can make a significant difference.Our range includes products designed to make bathing, showering and using the toilet safer and easier.

 

Depending on your needs, this could be something as simple as a grab rail or non-slip product, through to shower stools, raised toilet seats, bath boards and bath lifts.

 

The right equipment can provide additional stability and confidence while helping you remain as independent as possible with your everyday routine.

 

Grab Rails & Support Around the Home

 

Grab rails provide a simple way of adding support exactly where you need it.They can be useful beside steps, toilets, baths, showers, beds, entrances and other areas where a little additional stability can help. We offer different sizes and styles suitable for use both inside and outside the home.

 

Choosing the right position is just as important as choosing the rail itself, so speak to our team if you're unsure what would work best.

 

Comfort, Cushions & Positioning

 

The right cushion or support can improve comfort when sitting, resting or sleeping.We stock a range of cushions and positioning products designed for different purposes, including general comfort, posture, pressure relief and additional support.

 

Because everyone is different, it is important to choose a product that suits both the person and how it will be used.

 

Our team can help you compare the different options available.

 

Kitchen & Household Aids

 

Everyday activities such as preparing a meal, carrying a drink or reaching into a cupboard can become more difficult when strength, balance, grip or mobility changes.

 

There are many clever products designed to help.

 

From reaching and gripping aids to trolleys, perching stools and other practical household equipment, the right daily living aid can help you continue doing more for yourself while making everyday tasks safer and less tiring.

 

Bedroom & Living Room Aids

 

Small changes around the home can make everyday routines considerably easier.

 

Bedroom and living room aids can provide additional comfort and support with activities such as getting in and out of bed, sitting, standing, dressing and reaching.

 

We can help you explore simple solutions as well as more specialist equipment where greater support is required.

 

What to Consider When Choosing Daily Living Aids

 

With so many different products available, it can sometimes be difficult to know what will actually help.

 

A few things are worth considering:

 

What particular task are you finding difficult?

Is the problem related to strength, balance, reach, grip or comfort?

Where will the equipment be used?

Does it need to be portable or permanently positioned?

Will the user be able to operate it independently?

Does the product need to support a particular weight?

Is there enough space to use it safely?

Would trying the product first be helpful?

Would professional advice help identify the best solution?

 

Sometimes the most obvious product isn't necessarily the best solution. If you're unsure, come and talk to us. We can help you look at what you're trying to achieve rather than simply selling you a product.

 

Occupational Therapist-Led Advice

 

One of the things that makes Fen Mobility Centre different is that our centre is led by an experienced Occupational Therapist. 

 

Occupational Therapy is all about helping people carry out the activities that matter to them as safely and independently as possible. That makes professional OT knowledge particularly valuable when choosing daily living equipment.

 

For straightforward products, our experienced showroom team can usually point you in the right direction.

 

Where someone's needs are more complex, we can also offer more specialist advice and assessments.

 

Our aim is always the same: to find the simplest, most appropriate solution for the individual.
