Products part of the CVS Health by Michael Graves Design assortment include such items as comfort grip canes, easy-fold travel walkers, convertible shower chairs and 3-in-1 comfort commodes.
“There will be more than 70 million Americans ages 65 and older by 2030, along with millions of caregivers and other customers who need these types of products because of illness or while recuperating from an accident,” Brenda Lord, vice president of store brands at CVS Health, said. “By filling an unmet need for functional, but beautifully designed products, we aim to help improve the everyday lives of those who rely on these tools and who are seeking a more premium and customized market offering.”
Extensive in-home research was conducted with end-users, caregivers and clinicians to guide the creation of the new line, which included uncovering and solving shortcomings in the home health product space, the company said.
