Does Gratiot County, Michigan Have a Durable Medical Equipment Loan Program?

Since my dad’s got Parkinson’s, I know about dopamine.

I got a big hit of dopamine, grinning ear to ear, when I found Gratiot County’s got a whole closet full of durable equipment you can borrow for your care buddy.

Michigan-based Great Lakes Loan Closet specialized in durable medical equipment and lists 12 different Gratiot County programs where you could potentially get hooked up with some Medline assistive equipment.

Thanks to an ALS caregiver course I’m taking online, I’ve become aware that various organizations recognize the mobility challenges of those with ALS, Parkinson’s, stroke, or other mobility challenges. Various organizations run programs to send you essential durable medical equipment to make getting about easier for both care-giver and care-receiver.

Loan Closet partners with the ALS Association Michigan Chapter to deliver a local equipment loan program.

Michigan Assistive Technology Load (MATL) is another place worth a peak. 

If you’re thinking on a walker, wheelchair, or bed-to-toilet lift, then maybe some well-equipped Michigan assistive equipment lender has what you’re looking for, ready for you to use.
