Alliance Delivers Stand-Up Power Chair

SALISBURY, N.C. — As the culmination of a community effort
to raise the funds for its purchase, Alliance Seating &
Mobility delivered a power wheelchair with stand-up capabilities to
paralyzed Salisbury resident Tim Elrod. Elrod, who had been using a
manual wheelchair after being injured in a vehicle accident a year
ago, wanted to be able to stand again, especially when the time
came to walk his daughter down the aisle. His LEVO Combi standing
wheelchair with a Jay J2 Deep Contour seat cushion from Sunrise
Medical was delivered Oct. 28.

“This new stand-up power wheelchair will make a tremendous
difference in my life. It will allow me to accomplish many things
that I had been forced to give up like working in my workshop and
preparing dinner in the kitchen. It’s really going to help
immensely,” said Elrod.

According to a release, Alliance, a division of The Scooter
Store, LEVOUSA and its distributor MSL Associates, and Sunrise
Medical also provided additional gifts. “This was the first LEVO
Combi delivered by Alliance Seating & Mobility, and it
positions the division to serve more disabled people who desire the
many benefits of stand-up power wheelchairs,” the release said.
