    Favourite rollators to use while at the parks?

    Drive Medical Nitro; I have literally worn out and have so far replaced: the wheels, seat, and basket, but the frame is going strong. If you can, find a local mobility vendor, and "test fit" to make sure that the standard size is good for you. It's important to try any mobility or assistive...

    Medical mini fridge Yacht Club

    Disney's Yacht Club (407) 934-7000 You can call, and tell them you are an arriving Guest (be sure to have your dates of stay ready) and ask if they can help. Remember you will be talking to someone at the central call center; you can ask to be transferred to the hotel; I would ask to speak to...

    Scooter/Wheelchair Advice

    I still maintain that every single person above the VP level in the Disney Resorts org chart needs to spend however long it takes in a mobility device (I don't care, but I know some who believe they should be required to use one of the *old* Parks buggies 😂 ) and should have to navigate every...

    Scooter/Wheelchair Advice

    Yes. Our mobility devices are exactly that - an extension of our bodies. If you damage my wheelchair, or one of my beloved TravelScoots, you have damaged *me*, as I can no longer move without it. I have never understood, even before I became so reliant upon a device, why that seems to be a...

    First Aid center or other options?

    Seconding this; I have also spent time in First Aid when I needed to lie down. It is dependent on availability, but generally speaking I have always been able to use their services when I needed. Some of the nicest people at WDW, too.

    Scooter/Wheelchair Advice

    Yes! I have it in my local library systems digital favorites list; I’m hoping to get to read it later this summer (my list is always *so* long!)

    Advice on having to up my game

    When I search, I focus on words or phrases that *describe* what I am looking for. An example search to find a bath lift, like the one you originally linked to might look like this: Lift floor rechargeable battery waterproof If I was looking for a rollator, I might use a series of words like...

    Scooter/Wheelchair Advice

    I'm wondering if that is Sen. Tammy Duckworth. I wouldn't be surprised; she uses mobility devices and aides herself, as she is a lower-limb amputee. I have a great deal of respect and admiration for her.

    Parking ECV while riding monorail

    You can ask at the MK scooter/wheelchair counter, and see if they would let you leave it there. They aren’t obligated to keep it for you, but before you leave the scooter behind, consider this: The walk from the train station tunnels to the monorail station is *not* short, and it goes down a...

    Advice on having to up my game

    That bath lift looks pretty much like all the others. One thing I have found helpful on Amazon especially is to really take a hard look at reviews. If says it is a “Vine review” that means they got the product for free, so you might need to take that with a boulder-sized grain of salt. Also...

    Upstairs at Columbia Harbour House in an ECV?

    I feel like I remember a second floor at Pinocchios’s, but it’s been literally decades since I was up there, and I don’t recall where the access was. It was back when stairs were not my mortal enemy, and I still had both collagen *and* cartilage! 😂 I’m guessing they have closed it off; it...

    ECV on a Fort Wilderness golf cart

    I had actually forgotten that the outside rentals had become a whole deal. Oh well. No weird hybrid baby golf carts for us! 🤫 And I do agree about towing the scooter; while there is a (juvenile delinquent-shaped) part of me that kinda would love to see it… we have to be responsible grown-up...

    Y'all are *so* lucky that I am a digital packrat and I keep dang near everything! 😂 Southern Mobility & Medical Also, continue to keep an eye on the Journey site... I have seen accessories come and go there. I sometimes think they must leave it to the unpaid interns to keep up to date!

    Upstairs at Columbia Harbour House in an ECV?

    I think? that our own @SueM in MN posted about this? Yes, she did! Please see these 3 posts: 2nd floor at Columbia Harbor House Columbia Harbor House Elevator We have been on the elevator at Columbia Harbor House

    ECV on a Fort Wilderness golf cart

    OK, you didn't hear this from me. First of all, do go pop into the Fort Wilderness thread; those people are genuinely some of the nicest Disney folks around. I am forever an FW fan because of the awesome humans we met over and over again when staying there. Next, there *are* some golf cart...

    If I need urgent care for an eye issue, which would you recommend near WDW?

    Tagging on to this idea, I know for sure that CVS has local delivery, and I believe most Walgreens do as well; if your hometown eye doctor can call it to a local (at home) CVS or Walgreens, you can call and ask the Orlando location to fill the prescription, and have it delivered. I know that...

    I have a new knee!

    Listen, if I (somehow) got *into* that boat at Frozen, I would be right next to you - but hey, at least we wouldn't be alone! 😂 I have zero personal recommendations for boat rides, other than the ones that, you know, are either a walk-on or roll-on 😆 I feel like someone else here had this...

    New buses coming in early 2024 - ECV restrictions

    It makes sense; when we first found out about the new system, my first thought was that portable folding manual chairs would just... fold under the pressure (OK, I'm due one. I almost never get punny here 😂 ) This is just one of those middle-of-the-night crazy ideas, but what if we slide 2 or...

    New buses coming in early 2024 - ECV restrictions

    Good to know that the roll out of the new buses is more a gradual phase-in than just dumping them all into the system, and allowing chaos to ensue 😂 Just speculation: I wonder if they used the "traditional" tie-down because that may impact fewer seats - leaving more seats for folks to sit in...
