Need equipment at home, but aren't sure where to start? Our Durable Medical Equipment Loan Closet lends equipment including hospital beds, temporary ramps, commodes, elevated toilet seats, shower chairs, manual wheelchairs, transport chairs, knee scooters, rollators, and walkers. Insurance is not required, there's no cost to borrow, and no proof of disability is needed.

The program is open to New York State residents. It's a resource people turn to after surgery, while adapting a bathroom, or when coming home from a medical facility. Pickup or delivery may be arranged, though it isn't guaranteed. Visit our website to learn more and get started: ilchv.org/durable-medical-equipment-loan-closet
