Britt’s Guide to Choosing Durable Medical Equipment (DME)
- Look for a company that is established and has an AT Professional on staff.
- Beware of sit-and-go type chairs that can’t be changed to fit your needs.
- Make sure the vendor from whom you buy also repairs.
- The delivery person should be same person that did the fitting.
- Make use of “word-of-mouth” recommendations.
