27. You are a terrific person! A tip for those with mobility problems
Or relatives with them - if you need a lift chair, they can be found pretty cheaply on Craigslist, as can the motorized wheelchairs and scooters. You may have to watch out for smells, but an enzyme cleaner can take care of most of that.

The big thing to consider is that the older lift chairs do NOT have a battery backup like the fancier, newer ones do so if there is a power outage, there could be a problem. But I got the one I have for $50 - an incredibly cheap price for a powered lift chair!

I have not watched for the wheelchairs and scooters, just have seen them in some of the ads along with the lift chairs.
