Frequently Asked Questions About Walkers
What is the difference between a walker and a rollator?
+
Standard walkers have no wheels and must be lifted to move, providing maximum stability. Rollators have wheels (3 or 4), brakes, and usually a seat, allowing for easier mobility but slightly less stability. Choice depends on balance needs and endurance.
Are walkers and rollators covered by ADP?
+
Yes, walkers and rollators are covered under Ontario's ADP program for eligible individuals. Coverage is typically 75% of the approved amount. Westin Healthcare processes ADP applications and carries a wide selection of ADP-approved walking aids.
What height should my walker or rollator be?
+
The handles should be at wrist height when standing upright with arms relaxed at your sides. Most walkers and rollators are height-adjustable. Westin Healthcare staff can properly fit your walking aid during purchase or showroom visit.
What accessories are available for rollators?
+
Popular rollator accessories include baskets, cup holders, trays, cane holders, and oxygen tank holders. Westin Healthcare stocks accessories compatible with major rollator brands to customize your walking aid.
Can I use a rollator outdoors?
+
Yes, but choose the right type. 4-wheel rollators with larger wheels (8 inches or more) handle outdoor terrain better. Heavy-duty rollators are designed specifically for outdoor use with robust tires and higher weight capacities.
What is the ADP (Assistive Devices Program)?
+
The Assistive Devices Program is an Ontario government program that helps people with long-term physical disabilities pay for customized equipment. ADP covers up to 75% of the cost of approved devices like wheelchairs, scooters, hospital beds, and patient lifts.
