Amramp franchise opportunity for HME providers
BOSTON, Aug. 23, 2012—With the cost of living in a nursing home averaging a staggering $100,000 per year, more individuals prefer to age in their homes as long as safely possible, resulting in a pent up demand for accessibility solutions for the home. Using a patented, low-cost modular metal ramp system, Amramp has developed affordable products and services to make living at home possible for the mobility-challenged.
Providing easy accessibility to and from destinations, Amramp’s wheelchair ramps can be rented or purchased on either a temporary or permanent basis in residential, commercial and municipal facilities. Whether a person has a short-term or long-term disability, Amramp offers free evaluations and a quick and easy installation process that only takes a few short days. For example, late actor Christopher Reeve rented from Amramp as often as three times a month all over the country for just 20 minutes at a time to get on stage for speaking engagements.
Setting the industry standard for innovation and versatility, Amramp also offers a system of accessibility equipment through its HomeNest program. Amramp provides a complete, affordable suite of wheelchair ramps, lifts, showers and commodes while providing thorough instructions to certified caregivers on each apparatus so they can safely transfer clients from one location to another. At a fraction of the cost of a traditional nursing home, this system works as a comprehensive solution to enhance independence for the patient and family caregiver.
“No one wants to leave home and enter a health-care facility. Our accessibility solutions are making it possible for individuals with mobility challenges to stay at home longer,” said Julian Gordon, president and founder of Amramp. “It is our goal to help those who wish to remain in the home, stay in the home, making a positive and meaningful impact on these people’s lives.”
