Elder Depot has a unique story about how and why it was founded. I share it with you here in their own words.
About the Founder:
Kristen Pipher has dedicated over five years to caring for her dependent grandparents. Both suffered from Alzheimer's Disease and other physical ailments. After her grandmother passed away from kidney failure in 2002, Kristen made the decision to develop a comprehensive web site to help others care for their aging relatives and friends; leading to the establishment of Elder Depot. Kristen is dedicated to providing other caregivers with quality products at reasonable prices, as well as convenient services to save time and make daily life easier for both the caregiver and recipient.
Elder Depot has an "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau. The company sells products in its robust online catalog that help people in the bed, bath, dining, incontinence, clothing, vision, hearing, and mobility categories.
