Cane & Able, Inc. - Provider of Aids for Daily Living and Mobility Products

by June Portnoy

New to Langhorne, Cane & Able, Inc. is a lot more than a business venture for its owner, David Farrer. Rather, it is his passion inspired by his grandmother who suffered for years from lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and coronary disease. "Our family witnessed her slow decline," says David. "We attempted to improve her quality of life by searching for products that would help her maintain her independence." David and his family looked for items in catalogs and websites, only to discover that these products weren't what they claimed to be or do. As time went on, the family became increasingly more frustrated. It was this disappointment that led David to establish Cane & Able. It carries daily aids and mobility products for those in need, displayed in an environment conducive to seeing, touching, and handling any product before purchasing it. At Cane & Able, you don't need to guess whether an item will work best for you; you are encouraged to try it first to make sure it is comfortable and suits your needs. Cane & Able offers bright, cheerful surroundings in which products are innovatively displayed in their natural environment. Walk through a sample bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room and discover hundreds of aids for daily living ranging from dining and kitchen utensils to sight enhancements, dressing devices, as well as grooming and bathroom aids. Feel free to put your feet up on a luxurious lift chair that is every bit as comfortable, attractive and affordable as a traditional recliner. Whether you need a special device to help get you out of bed, use the bathroom, dine, or simply just get around your home, you will find it here in the same room where you would use it in your own home. Of course, mobility products, like scooters and wheelchairs, are also displayed throughout the showroom. Cane & Able carries all top of the line products and leading brand names. When you come here, you'll get the best quality products. "My goal is to make the public aware that there are effective devices that help people with challenges and needs to maintain their independence, enhancing their quality of life," says David. "By needing less hands-on help, individuals feel empowered." Cane & Able is an attentive, friendly family business where either David or his mother, Laurie, will assist you. They will explain how their products work and fit them if necessary. Plus, if you live within a five-mile radius to the store, David will offer a free assessment of your residential needs. This means he will come to your home to see where you are having difficulty so he can recommend products to help make your daily routine easier.
