My dad is a double amputee and is 73 years old. He has had difficulty pushing/moving his wheelchair as his left hand has limited mobility. I am looking to purchase a motorized wheelchair that will make moving around much easier for him. My mom, also 73, cannot manage to move him at all.
I would also like to have a mechanical hoist to help get him into and out of the car. He experiences mini strokes, which cause him to slur his speech, among other issues.
All I want is to make him as comfortable as possible and make daily tasks easier for him. Thank you in advance.

My 73-year-old dad, a double amputee, struggles with his wheelchair due to limited mobility in his left hand. I'm seeking a motorized wheelchair to ease his movement. My mom, also 73, can't assist in moving him. Additionally, I aim to acquire a mechanical hoist for car transfers due to his mini strokes, impacting his speech. All I want is to ensure his comfort and ease in daily life. Thank you in advance for any help.
