Peace of Mind's Ask The Expert Peter Silin, has created a web site called ElderPost. Similar to the popular Craigslist, this site is for the public to advertise and find free equipment and services, caregiver resources, pre-owned equipment for sale, commercial services for seniors, and more. It is also a great place for people to give away what they don't need - to know that their generosity helps out others who cannot afford to buy or rent equipment. ElderPost is a place for people to be able to help each other. Check it out today! Download the ElderPost Information Sheet here.
