Roads To Independence’s Loan Bank Program
Roads To Independence’s Loan Bank Program consist of a wide range of Assistive Technology
Devices that are loaned to individuals on a temporary basis. The loan bank is made up with
equipment that has been donated to the Center or purchased through grants. There is no fee
assessed to barrow an item from the Loan Bank. Loan Bank items are loaned out for a three-
month period (items may be barrowed for a longer period of time on a case by case basis).
Items from the Loan Bank are often used by individuals as a temporary solution while they are
healing from surgery or while they are waiting to receive funding to purchase equipment that is
needed permanently, but occasionally we donate these items to the individual.
Roads To Independence also receives some consumable items such as disposable incontinence
products that may be available from time to time. Not all Assistive Technology Devices are
available all the time as inventory depends on donations received. Individuals can call at any
time to see what may be available. Roads To Independence is always happy to take any
donations for the Loan Bank. All donations are tax deductible.
Some Assistive Technology items that may be available are: Bedside Commodes,
Wheelchairs, Walkers, Canes, Crutches, Shower Seats and Benches, Toilet Risers, Bed Canes,
Sock Aids, Lift Chairs, Power Chairs, etc.
We also have other items available including: Adult briefs and chucks, C-Pap machines and
supplies, catheters and tube feeding supplies, etc.
