With Gratitude to

People with ALS may need extensive durable medical equipment (DME) at some point during their illness. Our Durable Medical Equipment Loan Closet is generously hosted, free of charge, by our “Partner In Care” - Care Medical & Rehabilitation Equipment.

Our inventory of equipment consists of over 500 items including manual and power wheelchairs, bath seats, patient lifts, and most recently, a beach wheelchair. Care Medical stores and maintains these items at their Corporate Headquarters in Portland, Oregon.

Care Medical provides a dedicated customer service representative, Assistive Technology Professional, certified repair technician, and delivery driver to assist people with ALS in obtaining the equipment that meets their specific healthcare needs. This partnership with Care Medical Equipment ensures our families receive free support while waiting for insurance coverage or when various DME products are not covered by their insurance plan. Through this generous partnership with Care Medical, people with ALS up and down the I-5 corridor have access to much needed durable medical equipment. 

Care Medical & Rehabilitation Equipment is truly a “Partner In Care” and committed to our mission of empowering people with ALS and their families to live fuller lives by providing them with compassionate care and support. For this, we are so grateful.
