Reply To: Renting motorized wheelchair Osaka
Dear Tony
Nice to meet you. I will answer your question about short-term rental of electric wheelchairs. First, let me tell you a little about myself.
I live in Osaka.I have acquired a professional qualification in assistance and run a taxi company that accepts wheelchairs and people with disabilities. In Japan, a completely different official qualification is required to rent wheelchairs and other items. I also have that qualification, so I may be able to answer your question better. First of all, in Japan, there is a system of insurance for nursing care set by law, and a similar system is set for the rental of wheelchairs and other items. If you wish, I can advise you on arranging the product that is most suitable for you.
sincerely
Tak
