Frequently Asked Questions

This category covers the DME and mobility side of the catalog plus the cushions, covers and accessories that support it.
Which product groups are included in this mobility and durable medical equipment category?
The category groups ten sections: wheelchairs and wheelchair seating, patient and surgical positioning aids, recliners and seating cushions, support surfaces and mattresses, respiratory suction and infusion therapy equipment, pediatric neonatal and daily living aids, patient transfer lift and stretcher equipment, hospital and bariatric beds, ambulatory aids, and bath safety toileting and fall prevention.
Which manufacturers are represented in the durable medical equipment catalog?
The catalog carries recognized durable medical equipment manufacturers including Drive Medical, Invacare, Medline, Graham Field, Nova, ProBasics and Sunrise Medical, along with positioning and seating specialists such as ROHO, Skil-Care, AliMed and Posey.
