Four wheel walkers and rollators are walking aids for those requiring added help in moving around safely. While still somewhat able to walk, rollators and 4 wheel walkers are for those who need something more than a walking cane to help them in their every day travels.
Walkers help in rehabilitating injured users and to allow users with permanent disabilities the ability to move without personal aid. With or without wheels, walkers and rollators will give users more freedom. A rollator is basically a standard walker with rolling 4 wheels attached. Unlike a regular walker, a rollator doesn’t involve the lift that a normal walker requires and, accordingly, helps make walking a smoother process. A rollator however requires that the user be stable enough to not let it get away from them since it has rolling wheels.
