Check Out our New Medical Equipment Department!

We made it! The new Oswald’s Healthcare Shop is now open and humming along! We now have Chicagoland’s best selection of lift chairs on our sales floor – fifteen different chairs to try out! We have over twenty rolling walkers to choose from. There are three electric scooters and a power chair on display. Our bathroom safety section is full of new items ready to make your home safer and easier to navigate. Our new and expanded line of athletic and surgical braces is phenomenal. We continue to add new items on almost a daily basis. Today we got in a line of alarms that help monitor if a patient falls or exits a bed or bedroom. You place a monitor in one room and are alerted wirelessly if a patient falls or wanders out of bed. Another neat item is “The Sugar Cane”. It’s a cane that has a special four point tip so it stands by itself as well as giving superior stability. Come in soon and check the Healthcare Shop out!

And DON’T FORGET – October third is our 140th Anniversary Party!!!! We are going to be pulling out all the stops to have a great celebration. We will have specials on both sides of the store, refreshments snacks, demonstrations, samples and fun for all! There will be plenty of raffles and prize drawings. The first two hundred customers on Saturday will receive a special Ozzies Goody bag. So put it on your calendar, it should be a wonderful day not to be missed!
