Loan Closet
The loan closet program provides mobility, medical and home modification equipment for temporary use by people with disabilities.
Possible Needs...
- Need a wheelchair for a day?
- Want to go to the zoo with the kids/grandkids
- Need to use a walker while insurance on yours is pending?
If the answer is yes to any of the above, call the Loan Closet at Tri-Country Independent Living Center at 330-762-0007 or Relay Dial 700.
How it works
The items in the loan closet change and depend on contributions made by individuals and the return of previously loaned equipment.
Please take care of the equipment and return it in a timely manner so that others can be served as well.
If you are in need of a loaned piece of equipment, you will need to do the following:
- Call the Center "in advance" to find out if equipment is available. The center is unable to serve "walk-ins" during the workday.
- Must have a physician's script for the needed equipment which must be related to the person's specific disability.
- Must have a photo ID with current name/address.
- Must make arrangements to pick up/return the loan equipment.
Center Staff do not deliver nor pickup loaned equipment
- All equipment is loaned for a maximum of (3) months and must be returned to the center.
- Equipment borrowers assume all liability for the safe use of the equipment. The Center does not provide maintenance or repairs.
- There is a cash deposit required for wheelchairs, rollators, and wheelchair ramps. Call the Center for additional information.
The goal of the Loan Closet is to serve individuals with disability to meet short-term need for durable medical equipment.
