According to a study published in the March 2009 issue of “The American Journal of Medicine,” approximately one in five Americans over age 65 suffers from some form of mobility disability, which can include difficulty walking. For those seniors who are unable to walk, a walker can be a valuable tool for independence and overall quality of life.
Although walkers are not typically stocked in the health care facilities that most people think of when they think of CVS, the store does sell a variety of mobility products, including walkers. In fact, CVS is one of the leading retailers of walkers in the United States.
This means that if you are looking for a walker, CVS is likely your best bet. In addition, CVS is frequently one of the first places to carry new mobility products, so you can be sure that you will be able to find what you are looking for.
Finally, it is important to remember that walkers are not a cure-all for mobility disabilities. In fact, they are only one piece of the puzzle.
If you are looking for additional assistance with mobility, be sure to speak with your doctor or mobility specialist about the best options for you.
