Statistics show that one out of every five Americans suffer from a disability. Whether the disability be mental or physical, proper care is required for one's own health and financial needs. Since finding the proper care affects many Americans, financial advisors and policymakers strive to find a system that financially supports Americans with disabilities. This includes research on how to find accommodating long term financial services, how to investigate and manage marketing demands and how to work with external advisors and policy makers. This book explores the many different possibilities of financial reform and services for those with disabilities nation-wide.

Excellent value for a very useful bench
Review Date: May 31, 2009
Reviewer: Manish Laxmikant,
I recently lost the use of my legs and I'm confined to a wheelchair. The legs will heal but not for months or even a year or so. One of my biggest peeves was not being able to really shower. Sponge bathing does not match up at all. This transfer bench is sturdy, very comfortable to sit on, and is priced lower than anything else I've found on the Internet.
The suction feet allow me to transfer completely on my own, and this can be used two ways: 1) Keep a pair of legs outside the shower stall and the other pair inside, if the transfer from the wheelchair is difficult - gap is too wide. 2) Keep the entire bench inside and cross the gap with a sliding board or with the help of upper body strength. I was planning to do 1) but I have the strength to do 2) so that keeps the place a little drier.
The feet have incremental height adjustments to a fine degree. Not only are there closely spaced holes to extend/retract feet, but there is a second column of holes for 2x finer height adjustment. The vinyl seat is padded just right. My first real shower in a month lasted over an hour - i never wanted to leave, but the hot water ran out. I felt no pain sitting in the same spot all the time. I do wish the plastic was easier to remove, but I'm not knocking off any stars.
This bench is big enough for me at nearly 6 ft tall, and yet small enough so that just unscrewing the shower glass door gives me enough room to get inside. My occupational therapist seems to approve of its usefulness. I can get good, no-tip support from the handle on the far side. The backrest can be switched over if your shower faces the other way
5 stars. Great product, great value (we were given prices that were 100% over what we paid for this, so I sprung for one day shipping and I feel so clean with shower access!!

Great Chair
Review Date: January 23, 2008
Reviewer: Susan Gallagher, Florida
I got this chair when it was on sale for $13 and am glad I did as it is great! It is the only chair that fits in my shower comfortably and with both of my feet and ankles broken in a car accident I don't have to worry about them touching anything while using this chair and can wash easily and still have enough room to move while sitting. I recommend this product to anyone who needs to sit while bathing as it is worth the money. I got the one with the back.
Excellent Chair for the price

Reviewer: Yeolla, Calif
Great chair. Easy to use and clean. Its sturdy and adjustable too. The "U" shape design is a must for cleaning "down there" Can't imagine getting any other design once trying this one. Has been in use for over 4 months without a single problem.
This is just what I wanted

Reviewer: V. Stroh, Seattle, WA
I am very happy with this chair, I especially like the blue cover on the seat that isnt so cold when I sit on it. I have had ankle surgery and this has been much better than my husband having to raise and lower me into the bathtub to bathe. I also am able to bathe myself whith this chair which I was not able to do with the past surgerys I have had on my ankle.
