About Us

 

Celebrating 30 Years!!!!!


Like many successful companies, Handi-cap Aids Company was “born” in a garage.    The year was 1978 and the garage was in Edmond, OK. 

Along with the mobility industry, Handi-cap Aids has grown, learned, and benefited from improvements in technology and the wider selection of high quality mobility products.

In 2003, we added a second company, Mobility Auto Sales, to handle our growing inventory of wheelchair accessible vans.

Thanks to the support of our customers, we’ve outgrown multiple locations over the years.  In 2005, we moved Handi-cap Aids and Mobility Auto Sales to our newly constructed facility at 730 West Hefner Road in Oklahoma City.

 

             

Our Team

Owners - Mike and Kim Bradshaw Mike literally grew up at Handi-cap Aids.  As a high school Junior, in the Edmond Memorial High School DECA program, Mike came to work for HCA in 1981.  His first glamorous job was sweeping the shop floor (a task he STILL knows how to do!).  Over the years, Mike held various positions of increasing responsibility, always with the goal of owning the company.  In 2002, Mike and his wife Kim purchased Handi-cap Aids.  Kim joined the mobility industry in 2002, when she and Mike became the owners.  When they take a break from business, you might find Mike and Kim sailing on Lake Hefner or trying to catch fish…anywhere!


Dennis Madden
– With more than 30 years experience in Sales and Management, Dennis joined HCA in January 2005, and has used his skills to help us expand.  He has a busy extended family to keep him constantly on the go.  Dennis’ family experiences also give him an understanding and appreciation of the needs and challenges faced by those with disabilities.  In his rare free time, Dennis enjoys going to concerts and watching college sports and horseracing.  He’s also a great cook!  (Sorry, ladies…he’s taken.)

 

Richard Bradshaw – With more than 40 years of accounting experience, Richard was “lured’ out of retirement (and motor home travel) in March 2003, to become Mike’s company accountant.  Richard handles all phases of accounting for both companies, including accounts receivable and payable.  Weather permitting, you might find Richard with his rod and reel, looking for the perfect spot to catch a big bass.  Richard is Mike’s dad.

 

Pat Bradshaw – Pat joined HCA in March 2003, with more than 30 years experience in Management, Customer Service, and Sales.  She enjoys the variety of her job and the chance to use different skills.  When she is not working, travel is always Pat’s first choice for leisure time, especially car trips with the music blaring…and occasional casino detours.  Pat is Mike’s stepmom.

 


Chris Baker
– As a trained and certified mobility technician and certified welder, Chris has been helping HCA customers since March 2000.   His typical day includes installing wheelchair lifts and other types of mobility equipment, plus diagnosing and repairing older equipment.  Chris says he would do this work for free if he could afford to.  After hours, he might be spotted playing with his new grandson.  Chris also enjoys cooking, and makes his fabulous chicken and noodles every year for our Christmas luncheon.  (Hey, ladies…he’s single!)

 

Jeff Burke – Jeff joined HCA in June 2005, with more than 20 years experience in building, servicing, operating, and repairing heavy equipment.  As a trained and certified mobility technician and certified welder, Jeff works with minivan conversions, installs hand controls, and installs and services other mobility equipment.  His great summer tan comes from evenings and weekends racing his sailboat on Lake Hefner, hoping for perfect winds.

Our large, accessible restroom has an automatic door, automatic toilet, automatic faucet, automatic soap dispenser, automatic paper towel dispenser, automatic hand blower, and mirrors for “primping” at wheelchair height and standing height.


Our Annual Party!!!

Each fall, we “convert” our huge service department into an Exhibit Hall and throw a party!!  Our annual Customer Appreciation Open House

All the top manufacturers from our industry join us for the event, setting up displays of their products, with representatives here to answer your questions.  

Frequent drawings for great prizes create lots of fun and excitement! 

 

Oh…and then there’s the fabulous BBQ brisket with all the “fixins,” and some truly sinful chocolate brownies!
