Independent Living Resource Center has a Durable Medical Equipment Loan
Program.
The equipment on the program is given by donations, from
individuals who no longer have the need for it, or from friends and/or
families of ones who no longer need the equipment.
The equipment is checked over to ensure safety, and then processed into
the program to be able for loan to an individual who does have a need.
The equipment can be checked out on a short-term basis, such as 60 days,
or a longer term, based upon the situation.
