Does anyone know of a place in Holland, Michigan where my 89 year old grandmother could try out a scooter?

Mt grandmother is in an assisted living in Zeeland, Michigan and she has had problems with her walking for years. She has been depending on a walker, but she has gotten to the point where the walker won’t help. She tires really easily and it is a job just getting to the dining room. The assisted living has moved her to "level 2" care which means that they are keeping detailed notes on her and making a case for her to be moved to a full fledged nursing home. She is a little nervous about the idea of an electric wheelchair, so I thought that if we could take her someplace to test drive one, she might get excited about regaining some of her independence. Any ideas?
The only place I can think of is The Scooter Store. But I’m not sure how far or where Brockton Dr is from holland / zeeland area. Here is a link to them. Maybe you can check it out from there. I feel for your grandmother. My grandmother just had her knee completely replaced three days ago and is dreading going to a nursing home to recouperate. I dont blame her though, she has always been able to do everything for herself and is now pissed off that her body is wearing out on her. Good luck with your scooter search.
