			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every day there are seniors and the mobility-challenged unable to take a nice hot bath. It isn’t that they wouldn’t love to soak their aches and pains away but because they are afraid of falling on the way into or out of the tub. Family members have growing concerns when they are working and unavailable to monitor their loved ones safety.</p>
<p>Statistically, most falls for seniors do occur in the bathroom.  As seniors age one of the biggest issues is the loss of independence and the inability to continue routine activities. Seniors are often forced to give up on the traditional bath and have their bathroom remodeled to include a walk- in tub or shower.  Often these accommodations can cost several thousand dollars and are not viable solutions for people on a fixed income.<strong> Bathtub Lifts are compact, safe, affordable and easy to use.  If you can stand up from a seated position, (approximately 18 inches high) than you too can take a nice hot bath.</strong></p>
<p>Imagine soaking in a steamy bubble bath and being able to get in and out without having to ask anyone for help.  With the push of a button, a bathtub lift will lower and recline to a comfortable position in just about any bathtub.  No installation is required.   Just charge the battery and put the lift in place.  Remove it any time you like for storage or take it with you (The Harmar Aqua Joy folds in half ).</p>
<p>I recently purchased a Harmar Aqua Joy bathtub lift and gave it to my grandmother for her birthday.  She loves to take baths but had not been taking them as often because of a recent injury.  When she fell she injured her arm and hip leaving her dependent on one side for strength to transfer. She lost her confidence and worse than that, her sense of independence.  When it came time to take a bath, she was literally falling backward into the tub hoping the water would break her fall.  After time, bathing was not so relaxing anymore so I thought we would give the Aqua Joy a try.  At first, she was reluctant to let this foreign object into the tub with her but soon she became comfortable in her new bath lift.  “It’s very soft, but still gives me the support I need”…”I’ll never take a bath without it again”. (L. Barris 81yrs old and my grandmother for 36yrs).</p>
<p>Thank you Harmar for letting me give my Grandma the best gift ever…..</p>
<p>The relaxation that only comes from a nice hot bath.</p>
<p>Sincerely,<br />
<em>Chris Sarbo</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A medical vehicle lift (wheelchair lift) will assist you in the regular loading and offloading of your personal medical mobility product. Mobility vehicle lifts serve as one of the most beneficial add-on products you can purchase for your personal mobility assistance product.  We invite you to use this article as a reference point of a few pointers that we will use to outline what to look for in a good mobility vehicle medical lift.</p>
<h2>Quality in a Name</h2>
<p>You need to find a quality manufacturer when making next purchase for a vehicle medical lift or wheelchair lift. Our top pick is wheelchair lifts from Harmar. Harmar carries wheelchair lifts constructed with high-grade materials, quality bearings and each piece is tested repeatedly for sturdy construction and movement. You can of course research any namebrand of your choice by visiting Google, blog reviews and product information sites to make a more informative decision.</p>
<h2>Wheelchair Lift Supplier Installation Support Services</h2>
<p>Installation services are going to be far and few in between online and in-person retailers. You should always have your wheelchair lift or vehicle lift installed by a professional whom has thorough experience and knowledge of the wheelchair lift that he or she is installing. These services are often included or offered as a value added service to the vehicle medical lift that you are purchasing.</p>
<h2>Warranties for Vehicle Medical Lifts and Wheelchair Lifts</h2>
<p>Warranty services can come in all shapes and sizes. Most warranties should cover at least 3 years and should cover against defects in electrical and mechanical parts. The warranty should be effective the date of the purchase. We again suggest Harmar wheelchair and medical lifts for this as well. Harmar has one of the strongest names in the industry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a title="Power Wheelchairs" href="http://www.americanmadelifts.com/online-store/powered-wheelchairs/">Power Wheelchairs</a></strong> are growing fast in ownership among the senior citizen population. American-Made Lifts offers a wide variety of <strong>power wheelchairs </strong>from many manufacturers. In this blog posting however we will give you three of the top reasons on why you should consider purchasing a power wheelchair.</p>

<p>Ease of mobility is the primary and most obvious reason why the elderly purchase <strong>power wheelchairs</strong>. As we age our mobility choices are limited. Just getting up and out of a chair can put wear and tear on one&#8217;s joints and ligaments. <strong> Power wheelchairs </strong>can save on the strain of joints and even perhaps increase usage when needed.</p>
<h2>#2 Freedom in Public Places</h2>
<p>Many elderly people tend to have to rely on others as they age due to limited transportation choices. A <strong>power wheelchair</strong> will allow you to be mobile in places such as large parks, shopping malls and even your own backyard without needing the a great deal of assistance from family and friends.</p>
<h2>#3 Save Money in the Long Term</h2>
<p>You are planning for the future by purchasing a <strong>power wheelchair for yourself or even a loved one</strong>. <strong>Power wheelchairs </strong>are an economical means of mobility and a great alternative to having to depend on individuals for help. This in the long run will save you time and money. Money is especially should be a huge consideration with the economic foreast of the future.</p>
