August 03, 2020 2 min read

What comes to mind when you think of eldercare products? For most people, images of functional wheelchairs, plain walking canes or dreary hospital beds may emerge. As the ageing population in Singapore continues to grow, the demand for these products increases. However, they don’t have to be as boring and mundane as we make them out to be! Eldercare products are now more wide-ranging and stylish than you know. Here are 5 useful eldercare products you probably never knew existed.

 

1. Rollator 


    In short, rollators are like walkers with more wheels. They are suitable for elderly people who are more mobile, providing support during long walks. The Stander EZ Fold-N-Go Rollator comes with handbrakes and a seat, allowing users to sit and rest anytime. It is also foldable and compact. 

     

    2. Car Handle and Swivel Cushion

The formerattaches quickly to a car and comes with a handy integrated torchlight, while the latter allows users to twist and turn in any direction. Both of these help usersget in and out of a car with ease.
