Welcome to Big Al's Custom Scooters.  Big Al's Custom Scooters is owned by the fine folks at Hutchison Medical. 

We are not just a retail company that has started selling medical equipment on the internet, we are a Christian family-owned company with many years of medical equipment experience.  We strive to ensure that all our customers maintain and/or regain their mobility, independence and dignity by supplying the finest quality medical equipment at the absolute lowest prices.  Whatever your equipment needs are, or if you just need a resource for information, we guarantee that each and every customer will be completely satisfied. 

 

A little bit about us: Al Hutchison started working in the home medical equipment business in 1991.  In 2007, he founded his own company Hutchison Medical, Inc.  As a licensed Home Medical Equipment (HME) provider with the State of Illinois, Hutchison Medical became a contracted provider for the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS).  Since 2007 Hutchison Medical has sold countless portable and fixed lifts, floor lifts and slings nationwide.

Mission Statement

The Big Al's Custom Scooters family seeks to honor God by impacting the lives of our employees, customers, and community.

 

We believe that God owns this business and we are simply His stewards of it for a season.  We want to make sure that all we do in and through the business honors Him.  By the same token, we do not want to do anything that will dishonor Him.

 

We believe that we are here, and that this business exists, for the purpose of impacting people for eternity.  We believe that this is our ultimate goal.

 

Vision Statement

Moving people.

This statement is short, but is full of meaning.  First, it obviously references transportation, reflecting the automobile business we have chosen.  But it goes much deeper than that.

 

We want to take employees, customers, and those in the community and we want to “move” them from their current position (or circumstances) to a better place. Regardless of where they are in life (financially, professionally, emotionally, etc.), we want to move them to an improved situation.  Regardless of how they interact with us, we want them to be better off having done so.

 

Core Values

Integrity - We do what is right even when no one is watching.

 

This core value comes first for a reason.  Without integrity, we will not have the impact that we desire. We take this very seriously.  We will extend grace when it comes to mistakes and errors, giving people a chance to grow and improve in their jobs.  We are not as tolerant of violations in this area.  We need to know we can trust our coworkers without question.

 

Excellence

We are constantly redefining our goals, expectations, boundaries, and potential.

 

Our team’s talents and performance vary from person to person.  That is normal.  We simply believe that regardless of your talent or performance today, you should want to be better tomorrow.  We want teammates that are constantly striving to learn and grow, improving every day!

 

Employee Development

We strive to create an atmosphere that inspires and enables people to reach their full potential.

 

As a company, we want to meet our employees where they are as they strive for excellence.  Our goal is to provide the resources and inspiration required to “move” them forward on their path.  Sometimes this means they advance within our company and sometimes it means they move on to other opportunities.  Either way, we want to help!

 

Spiritual Growth

We provide the opportunity for all to know God and make Him known.

 

No one who works in our company is required to believe what we believe.  However, we make it clear early on that God is the owner of our company.  Therefore, all that we do centers around Him.  This includes many efforts to sow seeds of faith all around through various efforts. We will not force anyone to believe, but they will certainly have opportunities to hear.

 

Community Impact

We use our talents and treasures to make a difference in those who need it most.

 

We believe we are part of the community in which we work and therefore have the responsibility to give back to that community.  Whether through benevolence or sponsorships, community service or fundraising, we are going to take the time and energy to give to those who need it.
