Values & History
Founded in 2008, our organization has been in the mobility industry for the elderly and disabled for more than a decade, branching out from electric scooters and powered wheelchairs to a more robust menu of options, including stairlifts, portable and fixed ramps, threshold ramps, and more. The Mobility Plus goal is to help our customers remain independent, staying in their homes as long as they choose by empowering them with the mobility they will need to get around.
