Amramp Accessibility is proud to offer high-quality steel ramps that are durable, safe, and long-lasting. Our ramps are built to withstand even the harshest of weather conditions and heavy use, providing reliable access to homes, businesses, and public spaces for people with disabilities.
Recently, Bob and Kim Danek of Amramp Connecticut & Eastern New York responded to a call from a customer who had their ramp installed over eight years ago. This ramp has been in use daily, providing safe and reliable access to the customer’s home.
While the ramp did require some maintenance, we are proud to report that no parts needed replacing, just some repainting to keep the ramp looking like new. This is a testament to the durability and longevity of our steel ramps, and we are confident that this ramp will continue to provide reliable access for many years to come.
At Amramp Accessibility, we understand the importance of keeping ramps clear and safe, especially during the winter months when snow and ice can create hazardous conditions. That’s why we’ve designed our ramps with a unique, open-mesh surface that allows wind, snow, and ice to pass through, keeping the ramp clear and safe.
Unlike traditional wooden or concrete ramps, which can become slippery and treacherous when covered in snow or ice, our ramps feature an open mesh design that allows snow and ice to melt and pass through the ramp. This helps to prevent the buildup of ice and snow, making our ramps safer and more reliable in any weather condition.
In addition to their unique design, our ramps are made from high-quality materials that are designed to withstand even the harshest of weather conditions. Our steel ramps, for example, are powder-coated to resist corrosion and are designed to last for many years with minimal maintenance.
At Amramp Accessibility, we are committed to providing safe, reliable ramp solutions for our customers, and our unique design is just one way that we achieve this. Whether you need a ramp for your home or business, we have the experience and expertise to create a custom ramp that meets your specific needs. Contact us today to learn more about our accessibility solutions and how we can help you achieve safe and reliable access to your property. If you have questions, please call us at 888-715-7598.

In Home Care Helps Seniors with Depression
Too many seniors grapple with isolation and depression, but these are not a normal part of growing older. They are treatable medical illnesses, much like heart disease or diabetes. Depression is a serious illness affecting approximately 15 out of every 100 adults over age 65 in the United States.Seniors experiencing feelings of depression and isolation have a higher risk of hospital admissions, as well as a higher risk for being scammed. Not to mention it makes for a miserable life.So, what can you do? Helping seniors stay healthy means more than ensuring they get good physical care. Individuals living alone miss out on the stimulation of interactions with others on a regular basis. Our caregivers serve that dual purpose of providing physical care and social connection. We enjoy our clients, building a relationship with them, and sharing the highs and lows of their days. Caregivers can laugh with their clients and be an empathetic ear. We make sure our clients are getting out of the house and attending events and activities that interest them.Hiring a caregiver to help out, even for a couple of hours each week, brings conversation and spark along with the physical help. Caregivers are a good antidote for depression. If you have any questions, please call us at 303-444-4040.
Why Is Staying Hydrated So Difficult for Seniors?
Hot summer days are a good time for everyone to think about staying hydrated. For older adults the topic of hydration is a year-round discussion that never goes away. Its a serious issue for most seniors but doesnt get resolved because it needs to be addressed every day and cant be solved with a pill.Seniors have a very high risk for dehydration, which is one of the most frequent causes of hospitalization after the age of 65. They have a greater risk of dehydration for many reasons, including the fact that as we age, our kidneys become less efficient at conserving fluids, our sense of thirst weakens, and we are less able to adjust to changes in temperature. Some medications like diuretics, sedatives, and laxatives can also cause increased fluid loss.Dehydration can cause temporary symptoms that mimic symptoms of Alzheimers. If dementia-like symptoms seem to appear suddenly, it could be dehydration which is easily curable.Symptoms of dehydration range from minor to severe and include persistent fatigue, muscle weakness, headaches, dizziness, nausea, forgetfulness, confusion, lethargy, increased heart rate, sunken eyes, dry mouth, dark colored urine. Urine should be clear to pale yellow. I tell my clients that if their urine is darker than pale yellow, they should head straight to the kitchen from the bathroom and drink a full glass of water. Keeping a glass of water beside you all day to sip on rarely results in someone drinking enough fluids. Its more effective to drink the entire glass, even if its a small glass. Seniors cant rely on their sense of thirst to tell them when to drink water. Scheduling a glass at each meal and/or after a bathroom visit, making sure to drink the full glass, is the best way to make sure youve gotten your full daily amount.If you have any questions, please call us at 303-444-4040.
