Don't forget that, if you decide on a motorized mobility device for your loved one, you have two major options to choose from: a mobility scooter or a power chair (often called an electric wheelchair). Mobility scooters are quick and maneuverable, and many can collapse to make traveling easier. Power chairs are larger but more functional for individuals needing more assistance.
