Traveling with a disability may be difficult – but it should never prove impossible. If you or a loved one is disabled, consider investing in an RV so you can see the country or even the continent without getting on an airplane or relying on hotels that aren’t always accommodating. Ask an RV expert for help in selecting an RV that will offer you and your loved one the best traveling opportunities.
Consider the Brand
Read the Jayco story and learn how this reliable brand of RVs is one of the most popular RVs in the country. Jaycos come in a wide variety of sizes with extensive floor plans, so there’s one that will suit your needs and your budget, regardless of your budget’s restrictions. With two-year warranties and plenty of in-stock options, you’ll be able to start your vacation almost immediately, knowing that if anything goes wrong with the vehicle, you’re covered.
Look for Handle Bars
Handle bars make it easier to walk around any room. If you don’t see any on a model you like, ask about installing them prior to use. There should be handle bars in the shower and near the toilet for safety sake, but you might also benefit from bars near the bed so you have an easier time getting in and out of bed as well as bars along the walkways so you can rely on them instead of or in addition to a cane. An RV sales representative will be able to point out any additional features than specific models offer to those with mobility issues.
Opt for Spaciousness
The more room you have to walk around in, the easier time you’ll have to maneuver with a wheelchair, walker or cane. The bigger RVs that have separate living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and dining areas offer fewer obstacles for you or your loved one to trip on and more space to fit wheelchairs and walkers in. Look for a walk-in shower in the bathroom, too, and make sure there’s plenty of room to be able to turn around in that crucial room.
Make an appointment to tour the RVs on a nearby lot today. Ask about add-ons and RVs designed specifically for those with mobility issues. You won’t be the first people in need of a little extra assistance to enjoy the freedom that comes with an RV travel.
