6Unique Equipment forSeniors & VeteransBy: Carol ChapmanDuring the challenges in recent weeks, The Foundation AssistingSeniors has responded to more than double the usual numberof requests for durable medical equipment. We’ve provided this serviceto seniors and veterans in addition to maintaining our HowRUwellness check program, all because of our dedicated volunteers.We’ve also been fortunate to have companies step forward to sponsorour Gala (October 3 at The M Resort) and provide other support. Inparticular, I’d like to mention Jonathan Miller, President, In-StepMobility Products, who recently donated a U-Step 2 walker. This uniqueequipment is designed specifically for neurological conditions such asParkinson’s.The Foundation has built an inventory of special equipment overthe 18 years since our inception. You may see our vans around theVegas Valley as we deliver equipment throughout southern Nevada. Itis our intention to continue expanding deliveries statewide when ourdonation levels return to capture the momentum we experienced priorto the pandemic.As a reminder, FAS is the only local organization of its kind to clean,disinfect and sanitize its equipment with MicroShield 360, keeping ourclients protected from infection.If you have the ability to help us continue these crucial services, Iinvite you to donate online or mail your check to our office at 2518Anthem Village Drive, Henderson, NV 89052.Corporate sponsors, such as In-Step Mobility, are critical to ourmission.
