There are a plethora of Federal laws that go to protect the right of people with disabilities. The top main one is the Americans with Disabilities Act or also known as ADA. This law prohibits discrimination in 4 main areas:
1.Employment - The ADA has enforced that is illegal to discriminate or show pejudice against someone with a disability in all aspects of the employment environment. The law also requires that specific employers have to make some reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals who happen to have a disability. For example, if you do have a wheelchair, your employer may be required by Law to install a ramp or modify your workspace.
2.Both State and local government services and public transportation- The ADA makes it mandatory that all government services should be made available and accessible to people with disabilities. These services include but are not solely exclusive to public transportation systems .
3.Public accommodations- The ADA makes it mandatory that all public buildings be totally accessible to people with disabilities. Examples include making aisles wider and doorways and installing ramps for people in wheelchairs or mobility scooters. Another example is putting up signs in Braille form for people whose disability is blindness.
4.Telecommunications-. The ADA also requires that telephone companies provide specific telephone relay services to people with hearing problems and/or speech impairments .

Paid Surveys is a Great Tool for People with Disabilities to make extra money...
(Filed under mobility aids,electric wheelchairs,mobility scooters, disability income)
I think it is quite obvious that many people with disabilities have a really hard time physically. Being in a wheelchair or being totally incapacitated in a bed can be very debillitating and inconvient to say the least. But along with the physical hardship comes the realization that being disabled can mean having hardships with finances.
I can attest from my own personal view point that this is a big concern among people with disabilities. We all know how hard it is to be approved for disability income. And if you do finally receive it , it can barely pay your bills.
This is where I have found that paid surveys and gpt site offers can really really help you out with this predicament.
With paid surveys big Corporations will actually pay you money for your opinions and preferences about their products and services. This information helps these Corporations make better products and thus increases their Profits.
Paid surveys pay you anywhere from $1 to $150.
And th more surveys you complete the more you will continue to get. And the higher paying they will be.
Its really a great way to add on to your disability income !!

Bathroom mobility aids are important for many people with disabilities..........
(Filed under mobility aids,wheelchairs,mobility scooters,disability income, people with disabilities )
When people talk about mobility aids and equipment they first think of things like the standard items such as wheelchairs, mobility scooters,stair and lift chairs etc... This is a really an old fashioned way of looking at what is available. If you go and visit a mobility retail shop you will find it really informative. You can shop either online or you can go do it in person.
Bathing and using the toilet is an ongoing problem for many people with disabilities. And this is so important for people to have independence at their personal place of dwelling. From bath boards which snap on top of the bath to bath lifts which will lower down a handicapped person into the bath water, there are numerous products which will make this such an easy process today. When buying a bath lift it is important to make sure that the one you purchase will be able to carry your weight easily. And make sure it has a safety position if the battery is running very low it will give you a lift out of the water and not leave you stranded.
You really need to find one that is light and easy to take apart for those times when you have Guests that are visiting. You also want a good guarantee and Warranty. Look for a minimum of 3 years, and 5 if you can get it. The Dentler bath is a brand of lift that offers all of the above and more. Mobility aids includes bath steps, bath rails and all the items to help with showering as well. Having toilet seats that raise are a necessity for someone with problems with the knees and particularly those who have just had a hip operation. And many commodes are nicely made and come in wicker basket style which look lovely in any bedroom.

What is the purpose of a commode chair ??
(Filed under commode chairs, mobility aids,mobility scooters,electric wheelchairs, disability income )
Commode chairs are very helpful in providing assistance in the bathroom. And elderly people may require it for the following reasons:
-Where illness and sickness has made the body weak and imbalanced. Making trips to the bathroom very difficult and many times dangerous. Btw,the bathroom is a common location for seniors to fall.)
-Surgery has in a temporarily manner left a person too weak to walk the distance to get to the bathroom.
-Joint problems and aging has tended to weaken the legs, and making it very difficult for an elderly person to get on and off the commode.
-Balance problems which make it a struggle for a senior to safely travel to and get on or off the toilet.
How Do commode chairs help?
Its a fact that many falls happen in the bathroom for two specific reasons: one, water and moisture in the air can make bathroom floors very slippery; and two, weakened muscles and imbalance issues can affect an elderly persons ability to get to the bathroom and use the commode. Commode chairs reduce the risk of falling by making it easier to get on and off the toilet. Many of them function as a portable toilet, reducing trips to the bathroom.

The benefits of power chairs and some of the best brands.........
(Filed under power chairs, mobility aids, electric wheelchair, mobility scooters, disability income )
Lift chairs or power chairs are very popular among disabled people and are similar to recliners. Power chairs have both a back rest and foot rest. They are both controlled with a remote control. The base of the power chair rises into the air when the remote control is engaged. When the base is fully extended it makes it easier for a disabled person to get up and down from the chair !! Along with the weight capacity and the certain dimensions, power chairs are also classified by the extent which they recline.
Th infinite position power chair will recline to an almost horizontal position. It allows total operation of both the back rest and foot rest. The A 3-position Power chair will also go to an almost horizontal position. The only difference is the foot rest and back rest operate together. The 2-position lift chair, or TV recline power chair, reclines to about 45 degrees. It is great for things like watching television or reading a book !!
Modern power chairs are very well made for the most part and pretty dependable. Manufactures like Golden Technologies and Pride Mobility only use the best and most durable materials. This makes their power chairs some of the very best in the market. A new comer called NexIdea is beginning to make a dent as well and is recognized for making very well made and attractive power chairs.
