walker
Elderly support device
A walker is someone who walks, often as regular exercise: She's an early morning walker.
A walker is also a frame device that helps people with mobility difficulties move around—common among the elderly and those recovering from injuries.
In American English, a baby walker is a wheeled seat that lets infants scoot around before they can walk independently. (Capitalized Walker is a surname.)
