Mobility and Daily Living Aids for Guillain-Barré Syndrome
Guillain-Barré syndrome can cause sudden weakness, numbness and loss of mobility, and recovery usually takes weeks or months, with needs changing as strength returns. The right equipment, often on short-term hire, helps you come home from hospital safely and supports each stage of your recovery.
For Guillain-Barré syndrome information and support, speak to your healthcare professionals and visit the NHS website. Our qualified trusted assessors are also here to support you and your care team every step of the way, so please call us on 01926 624432.
Many of the products below are available to buy or through our Warwickshire-wide mobility equipment hire service. Hire can help to facilitate hospital discharge, enable you to try equipment before committing to a purchase, or provide support as needs change. We also offer a free home assessment with one of our qualified Warwick-based team to help you choose what’s right for you.

Wheelchairs and Powerchairs
In the early stages of recovery, a wheelchair is often essential for getting around. Transit and self-propelling wheelchairs suit most people, while a folding powerchair helps if arm strength is also affected.
Shop our Wheelchairs and Powerchairs ranges, including the Ergo 3 Transit, Ergo 3 Self Propel and Robooter E40. Many of these are also available to hire rather than buy.
Transfers, Beds and Pressure Care
Person hoists and transfer aids make moving safely possible when strength is low, a home care profiling bed helps with positioning and care, and pressure-relief mattresses and cushions protect the skin while you are less mobile.
Shop Person Hoists, our Beds, Mattresses and Pressure Cushions ranges, including the Medley Ergo bed, Softform Premier Mattress and Matrx Flo-Tech Plus Cushion.
Walking Aids
As strength returns, an indoor walker or rollator supports you through the move back to walking, giving stability and somewhere to rest.
Shop our Walking Aids range, including the Let’s Go Indoor, Saljol Page, Glide 2-in-1 and Folding Walking Stick.
Bathroom and Home Adaptations
Shower chairs, bath boards, raised toilet seats and toilet surrounds make personal care safer, while grab rails and ramps help around the home.
Shop our Bathing and Home Adaptations ranges, including the Ocean VIP Ergo, Bathboard with Handle, Raised Toilet Seat, Toilet Surround, Grab Rails and Ramps.
Daily Living and Exercise Aids
Easy grip cutlery, reachers and dressing aids help while hand strength recovers, and therapy balls and a pedal exerciser support the exercises your therapists recommend.
Shop our Daily Living Aids range, including Easy Grip Cutlery, the Standard Reacher, Easy-Pull Sock Aid, Gel Therapy Balls and the Pedal Exerciser.
Repairs, Modifications & Servicing
Needs change quickly during recovery, and existing equipment doesn’t always need replacing. Wheelchairs can often be adapted with extra accessories, and powered wheelchairs can be reprogrammed or have their controls adjusted. Our team also offer regular servicing to keep equipment safe and reliable.
Shop Wheelchair Accessories, Wheelchair Powerpacks and Powerchair Adaptations, or see our repair, modification & servicing team for adjustments, adaptations and powerchair programming.
Using a combination of these products can help you come home safely and support each stage of your recovery from Guillain-Barré syndrome. Find out more about Wenman Healthcare, or browse our full range of products in the shop.
