The Caregiver Closet is a resource available to caregivers and veterans in Park Rapids and the surrounding areas.
The items provided by the Caregiver Closet include durable medical equipment, both reusable medical supplies and one-time use supplies. The items are offered free of charge, with the expectation that the items will be returned to the Caregiver Closet (if they are reusable) when they are no longer needed, so they can be redistributed.
The Caregiver Closet can include, at any given time, canes, walkers, commodes, shower benches, crutches, hospital beds, lift chairs, Hoyer lifts, and so much more. All equipment is clean and ready to go in “as is” condition.
Equipment and supply use are free. Donations are tax deductible.
