What discharge lists usually ask for

If yours does not match any of these, call and describe it.

Langley homes have a particular problem: stairs

Much of Langley Township is single-family housing with bedrooms upstairs. After a fall or a hip replacement, the stairs are usually the first thing that stops working — and the answer is often a hospital bed on the main floor rather than a stairlift or a renovation. Measure the room you would use, including whether there is a power outlet within reach, before you decide anything else.

Two things Langley families run into

Both are about the house rather than the person.

The bedroom is upstairs

Very common in Walnut Grove, Murrayville, Brookswood and the newer Willoughby developments.

  • A hospital bed downstairs solves more than any other single item
  • You need about 88 by 36 inches plus standing room on one side
  • A commode beside the bed removes the night-time trip entirely
  • Check whether there is a bathroom on that floor before committing

The property is spread out

Longer driveways, gravel, and a walk from the car to the door — more of an issue in Aldergrove, Otter and the rural east.

  • Small-wheeled transport chairs struggle on gravel and uneven ground
  • A rollator with larger wheels handles outdoor surfaces far better
  • Threshold ramps solve a single step at a door cheaply
  • Tell us about the approach — it changes what we recommend

What happens when you call

Four steps, and the first takes five minutes.

1

Tell us the situation

Read us the discharge list or describe what happened. We will ask about doorways, stairs and who is helping.

2

We say what you need

Including what you do not. Renting is usually better for a short recovery.

3

Same-day delivery

Free across Langley, Aldergrove and the Lower Mainland.

4

We set it up

Assembled in the room and explained before we leave.

If you are applying for funding, do not buy first

Ministry funding in BC has to be approved before you purchase. Renting is not a purchase, so it covers the immediate need without jeopardising an application. Our step-by-step funding guide explains the process, including how discharge cases can be expedited.

Questions families ask us

The discharge is tomorrow. Can you deliver in time?

Often, yes — if you call early in the day and the item is in stock. Beds, commodes, walkers and bathroom safety equipment are what we hold on the showroom floor. Call 604-240-2450 and tell us the discharge time; we will say honestly whether we can make it.

Can a hospital bed go in the living room?

Yes, and in Langley it is often the right answer because bedrooms tend to be upstairs. You need roughly 88 by 36 inches of floor space, standing room on at least one side, and a power outlet within reach for a full-electric model.

I have a list from the occupational therapist but do not understand it.

Read it to us over the phone or send a photo through our contact form. Hospital lists use clinical terms and rarely mention sizes or whether renting is an option. We will translate it into specific items.

What if we get it home and it is wrong?

Call us. If something does not fit the room or suit the person, we would rather sort it out than have it sit unused. That is also the argument for renting first when a recovery is short.

Is any of this covered?

MSP generally does not fund home medical equipment. Funding runs through Ministry programs such as BCEA or PWD, extended health plans, ICBC or WorkSafeBC. Ministry funding requires approval before purchase — see our funding guide.
