Crutches and Mobility Aids
Crutches and mobility assistance equipment
About This Service
When you're dealing with a leg injury, the right mobility aid can make all the difference in your comfort and ability to get around safely. Fast Med Medical Center provides crutches, walkers, and other mobility aids for patients who need assistance during recovery from lower extremity injuries. Getting the proper fit is crucial – poorly fitted crutches can cause pain in your hands, arms, and underarms, and may not provide adequate support. Our team measures and adjusts crutches to your specific height and ensures they're set to the correct length for your comfort and safety. We also provide thorough training on proper crutch technique, including how to walk, navigate stairs, sit down and stand up safely, and maintain your balance. We have various types of mobility aids available, from traditional underarm crutches to forearm crutches that some patients find more comfortable. Most insurance plans cover these medical supplies, and we work with you to ensure you have the equipment you need.
