Woman using Collator

Marilyn – Age 79; Northern Illinois

Marilyn is an active member of her church and enjoys Bible study. She has expressed concerns about fatigue with mobility and when engaging in daily activities, such as getting ready and moving around the house. Along with these concerns, she lives alone and is starting to experience vision loss. She received an iPad and can use it to stay connected to her community, while also having options to make it more visually accessible. Marilyn stated that she can engage in her daily activities in the bathroom more easily and with less fatigue using the rollator she received through the I C C program. The rollator has made her feel more comfortable going out and navigating the community. Although she still requires occasional seated rest breaks, the rollator enables her to be out and about while providing a convenient place to rest.
