Home Medical Equipment

Home Medical Equipment (HME) refers to devices and supplies used by individuals in their residences to aid with health conditions and improve daily living. This includes items like wheelchairs, walkers, oxygen tanks, blood pressure monitors, and respiratory devices. HME helps maintain independence, manage chronic illnesses, and assist with recovery from illness or surgery. Usually prescribed by healthcare professionals, these tools are designed for convenience, safety, and comfort, enabling patients to receive care at home rather than in a medical facility. Proper use and maintenance are essential for effective and safe health management.
