How much does stair assistance cost?

$200 a visit. That covers two trained Care Remedy staff and a motorized stair chair. Need a ride too? Pair it with wheelchair transportation and we handle the stairs and the van in one booking. See the full price breakdown.

Who uses a stair chair service?

People who cannot safely walk stairs but are not having an emergency: after a hip or knee replacement, after a hospital stay, with Parkinson's or MS, in a walk-up or triple decker, or when a building elevator is out. Families also book us for weddings, funerals and holidays at a relative's house.

Can I just call the fire department for a lift assist?

Fire departments will help in a true emergency or after a fall, but they are not a scheduled service and repeated calls are discouraged. If you know the stairs are a problem on a set day, book it. What the fire department will and will not do.

Does insurance or Medicare pay for it?

Usually not. Original Medicare does not cover stair carries, and most plans treat it as a private service. Some Medicare Advantage plans and long term care policies may reimburse it; we give you an itemized receipt to submit.

Is there a weight limit?

Yes. The stair chair has a rated capacity and we will confirm it with you on the phone before the visit. More on weight limits.

Can you take a power wheelchair or a wheelchair user down the stairs?

We move the person in the stair chair and carry or guide the wheelchair separately. Power chairs are heavy, so tell us the model when you book. Getting a wheelchair user up and down without a ramp.

How soon can you come?

Book a day or more ahead when you can. Same day visits depend on staff availability, so call and ask.

What areas do you cover?
