Everyday tasks become easier with the right support. This Aids to Daily Living Help Center offers guidance and resources on products that support independence, comfort, and safety at home.
These are products designed to make everyday tasks safer and easier. Examples include ramps, overbed tables, and reachers that help support independence and comfort at home.
By removing obstacles in daily routines, these products help you move more safely, handle tasks more easily, and feel more confident at home.
Aids to daily living are designed to remove barriers in your daily routine. From ramps that make moving between spaces safer, to overbed tables that bring meals or activities within reach, these tools help reduce effort and increase comfort. By making everyday tasks simpler, they also promote greater independence, allowing you to stay confident and active at home.
When choosing an aid to daily living, think about the tasks that feel most challenging in your daily routine and the spaces where you’ll use the product. Consider factors like size, ease of use, and how the item fits into your home environment. The right product should reduce effort, improve safety, and add comfort to your everyday life.
These tables are designed to slide under the bed or chair. Adjust the height to a comfortable level, and lock the wheels in place for stability. They’re ideal for meals, reading, or other activities while resting in bed or sitting in a chair.
Always choose a ramp with the right length and slope for your space. Make sure it’s stable and secured before use, and keep surfaces clear of water or debris. Adding handrails or non-slip materials can also improve safety.
Most products can be wiped down with mild soap and water. Overbed tables and reachers should be kept dry and free of buildup, while ramps should be checked regularly for stability and surface traction.
Coverage for aids to daily living products varies. Some items may qualify if prescribed for medical use, while many are considered out-of-pocket purchases. Our team can review your benefits and guide you through the process to keep things simple.
