May is Mobility Awareness Month and we thought we would share some information with you: Mobility challenges are the most common disability among older Americans. According to the CDC an American over the age of 65 falls every second, and the pandemic has made a major impact on these statistics. Durable medical equipment helps support the needs of someone impacted with mobility challenges and can improve their quality of life and prevent injuries. To find the mobility equipment that helps to support you or someone in your life who has been impacted with mobility challenges please visit us at Destination for Aging in Place – Journey Health & Lifestyle (shopjourney.com)
