I've reached the point where I need a walker, but it's overwhelming when I look at all the different kinds. I don't want to be influenced by a pushy salesperson in a store. Can you recommend one?

<p>You’re right – there is a vast selection of walkers available! There are articles on what to consider when choosing a walker, such as <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/best-walkers-for-seniors#encouraging-use" target="_blank">healthline</a> and <a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/healthy-aging/multimedia/walker/sls-20076469?s=1" target="_blank">mayo clinic</a>. However, it is strongly advised that you work with an occupational therapist to find the right fit for you! As part of the assessment to help determine which walker is best for you, you may want to “test drive” one before buying. After all, even the more popular or most expensive walker may not work for your unique needs.</p> <p>Many medical supply retailers offer assessments and fitting services. They often carry several products, so they are less likely to want to sell you a particular brand. We suggest you take advantage of this. Some also have rentals, so you may be able to rent one and see if it meets your needs before you buy.</p> <p>Below are direct links to some well-known medical supply retailers in BC that sell and/or rent walkers:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.hmebc.com/product-category/walkers-walking-aids/" target="_blank">HME BC</a> </li> <li><a href="https://motioncares.ca/products/walking-aids/" target="_blank">Motion Specialties</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.selfcarehome.com/Catalog/Category/6878/Walkers--Knee-Walkers--Canes--Crutches" target="_blank">SelfCare Home Health Products</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.islandmediquip.com/" target="_blank">Island Mediquip</a></li> <li><a href="https://shop.wellwise.ca/collections/rollators-walkers" target="_blank">Shoppers Wellwise</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.nsm-seating.ca/catalog" target="_blank">National Seating & Mobility</a></li> </ul>
