Aging Gracefully: Cutting-Edge Assistive Devices for the Elderly and Disabled

The Elderly and Disabled Assistive Devices Market includes medical equipment that is used to aid the disabled and elderly population to live independently. This includes mobility devices such as wheelchairs and scooters which help provide freedom of movement for those unable to walk. Other assistive devices include hearing aids, prosthetics and orthotics that help compensate for lost senses and limb mobility. The devices also include emergency response systems and monitoring devices for the safety of the elderly population. The global elderly population is rising rapidly due to increased life expectancy and declining birth rates. According to the United Nations, the number of people over the age of 60 years is projected to grow to nearly 2.1 billion by 2050 from 703 million currently. This rising elderly population base especially in developed nations is driving the demand for assistive devices that help provide independence and comfort to the aging population.

The Global Elderly and Disabled Assistive Devices Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 27.77 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.2% over the forecast period from 2023 to 2030.

Key Takeaways

Key players operating in the Elderly and Disabled Assistive Devices are Sonova Holding AG, Bausch & Lomb, Inc., Permobil AB, Siemens Healthcare, Freedom Scientific, Inc. Major players are focusing on new product launches, mergers and acquisitions to strengthen their market presence. For instance, in 2022 Permobil acquired US based auto chair manufacturer, Invacare.

The growing elderly population globally is driving the demand for assistive devices that help provide independence and mobility. As per the UN, the number of people over 60 years will reach up to 2.1 billion by 2050 from 703 million currently. This growing geriatric population base requires assistive devices for mobility, daily tasks and emergency response.

Geographically, North America dominated the elderly and disabled assistive devices market in 2020 owing to favorable reimbursement policies. However, Asia Pacific is expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period owing to increasing healthcare spending and burgeoning geriatric population.

Market Drivers

The rising incidence of disabilities globally due to increasing road accidents, chronic diseases and improved survival rates is a key growth driver for the elderly and disabled assistive devices market. According to WHO, over 1 billion people worldwide live with some form of disability. This growing disabled population requires assistive devices like wheelchairs, walkers and prosthetics to perform their daily activities. Moreover, favorable government regulations in the US and Europe regarding usage and insurance coverage of assistive technologies have encouraged adoption of these devices.

The current geopolitical tensions and uncertainties pose challenges for the elderly and disabled assistive devices market's global expansion efforts over the coming years. Regional conflicts and economic sanctions have disrupted supply chains and manufacturing hubs in certain parts of the world. This has led to delays and increased costs of developing and delivering assistive solutions to those who need them. To navigate such a dynamic external environment, companies must focus on building resilience within their operations. Diversifying supplier and manufacturing networks across different geographies can help mitigate over-dependency and single-point failures. Partnerships and alliances also offer opportunities to cooperate and strengthen cooperation even during politically challenging times.

Looking ahead, the market must increasingly localize operations to cater to regional preferences and address specific cultural needs of elderly populations. Customizing products based on local lifestyle habits, languages, affordability levels etc. can boost access and adoption. Governments too need to incentivize localized production through tax benefits and financing support. Collaborating with local healthcare providers also ensure last-mile connectivity and awareness. Overall, a flexible, adaptive approach balancing global expertise with local relevance will be key for sustained growth amid geopolitical headwinds.

In terms of geographical concentration, North America accounts for the largest share of the elderly and disabled assistive devices market currently, driven by extensive healthcare coverage and higher per capita spending power in countries like the US. Europe is another major revenue generator owing to supportive regulatory frameworks and aging demographics across Western nations. Looking at faster growth, the Asia Pacific region especially China is emerging as an area of focus for players. With rapidly expanding elderly populations and focus on accessibility, the market sees increased traction here over the next decade.

#buildaladder today was very scary and very exciting. Ever since my burn-out I haven't been able to cycle. My sense of balance has gotten worse, my ability to stand saddle pain gotten les. Because of that I couldn't spend enough energy on keeping an eye on traffic and reacting to what was happening around me. My world got smaller and if I want to visit places farther away I'm dependent on public transport or other people driving me by car. Now that I have a little more energy I want to be able to go more places again. We contacted the council and eventually I got a trial period for this tricycle! Today was my first session with the ergo therapist to learn how to use it. Because! Riding a tricycle is VERY different from riding a normal bike. It went pretty well, though I don't quite dare going out alone with it yet. I'll be practicing in the coming weeks and hopefully I'll be able to go more places. Younger me would have been very embarrassed about having to use an disability aid. Current me is grateful to get this change. Fuck ableism and internalized ableism! I deserve a happy fulfilling life. #actuallyautistic #actuallyautisticadult #autisticburnout #autisticadult #autism #autistic #tricycle #tricycles #adulttricycle #disabilityaid #disabilityaids #imgoingonanadventure https://www.instagram.com/p/BwoxYRtgGDG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vkumsixapbfm

*Ignore the socks and PJ’s* - But, as someone who uses crutches regularly, I have a few different ones - one being an open cuff design. Unlike the typical NHS crutches, you have to keep hold of these, where as with an NHS design crutch and others similar you can let go of the handle and let the crutch dangle from your arm using the cuff - this is great if you need that extra hand free to get something out of your bag for instance. —————————————— Anyway - back to the other crutch - the one with an open cuff, this design is great if you’ve got a big puffy jacket on but as mentioned, you can’t let go of it without propping it up somewhere first. So I decided to fix my problem in a funky and stylish way and I’ve created these straps. —————————————— They have an elasticated hoop that goes on to your crutch (or walking stick) and attached is a plastic link wristlet you slip over your hand before you grab the handle of your crutch or walking stick - I’ve also added some stylish charms, a bell to help being noticed easier and a spare keyring clip that you could attach keys or and ID to, perhaps a works pass or bus pass, whatever you like really! I’ve only made 5 so far in this style - there’s 5 colours to choose from. I will be making 5 more but in a different style perhaps using macrame for those who would prefer fabric to plastic. —————————————————— These will be up in the shop very soon priced at £9.50 - I also plan on doing a deal with a 2 pack at £18 on a made to order. As always there’s free personalisation on all my handmade keyrings/straps/chains/charms so if you’d like to add your name too for free I can pop that on in beaded letters (various colours to choose from). —————————————— #taintedcraft #disabilityaid #disabilityaidscanbepretty #crutcheslife #walkingstick #walkingstickswag #walkingsticks #disabilitypride #disabilitysupport #spoonie #spooniewarrior #spoonies #spooniecommunity #fibromyalgie #degenerativespinedisease #smallbusiness #ehlersdanlossyndrome #hypermobility #hypermobilitysyndrome #warrior #chronicillnesswarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/CqaKusGrUcB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What type of shower chair is best?

A shower chair may be required to assist a person with disabilities or any mobility problems. Shower chairs enable and maintain a level of independence that surrounds their personal care by offering a safe and secure showering method.

There are various models on the market and most likely one that suits your requirements.

How to choose a shower chair?

It is important to ask: what are the problems facing you or the prospective user and what help is needed?

You must consider your budget as well as the features that you require

Do you need a static or moveable chair

Few shower chairs come with back support and some without also there are models that attach to the bathroom wall

What are the materials used to make shower chairs?

1. Steel

The first chairs developed and are non-existent even today. They were extremely durable, but susceptible to rust and required regular cleaning

2. Wooden

These became more popular and led to a new trend in bathroom safety products with more style options

Most people don’t want their equipment to look like medical equipment

Many of these chairs are made of teak which is naturally water resistant

Teak even used in boat building since ancient times

3. Plastic

It is lightweight, durable, and inexpensive

It is waterproof

It will not degrade or form rust

Cleaning is easy, as you can rinse off once after you use it

4. Aluminum

It decreased in popularity because cheaper materials have evolved

Best shower chairs for elderly use, aluminum frames with plastic seats increases durability and stay light in weight

It is water resistant and does not form any rust

It takes a little more effort to clean because soap scum might stick to it

Order Aluminium Chairs

Shower chairs with arms

Arm rests can be padded

Buy shower chairs with arms

Shower chairs with toilet commode openings

Buy shower commode chairs

Shower chairs with backs

Many options are available in the market such as,

1. Shower chairs with backs

2. Shower chairs without backs

You may ask the question, which chair best suits the elderly? – It purely depends on the senior who uses it

Purpose is to support the bather from behind and keep safe from falling

If the elderly needs some rest or when they lose balance – they need the one with back support

If elderly has only leg weakness and is unable to stand for a long time, then they may prefer the one without a back support

Buy Shower Chairs

Shower chairs with padded seats

It is primarily for comfort

Materials such as plastic, aluminum, wood, etc. don’t tend to be comfortable.

The padded seats are designed so that water easily drains away

If water builds up in or under the padding, mold or mildew could develop and should be cleaned as per the manufacturer’s instructions

If the seat is not padded then place a few wash cloths or a hand towel on the seat – this adds some cushioning

Buy Shower Chairs with padded seats
