LHR T3 to hotel near Ealing Common post surgery

I am planning to fly to London 8 weeks after having a total hysterectomy. I am taking my two-wheel upright pullman and do not want to lift it up steps. I also want to be able to roll it on and off public transport with no lifting.

I have the step free tube guide map.

My hotel is about a 4 minute walk from Ealing Common. I've stayed there before and know that the Ealing Common tube station has steps so I can't take the Tube there from LHR.

Here is my idea and I hope I can do this as I don't want to spend money on car service. If I take the Heathrow Connect to Ealing Broadway, is the exit from the train to the street step-free? I am not sure if the map I linked above shows that. If it does or does not, my apologies. But I would like to verify with you all here.

Next, if the transfer from the Heathrow Connect to the street is step-free, I would like to take a bus to my hotel. There are a few lines that go in that direction. Can one board the buses step free? NYC buses have that functionality of converting the steps into a ramp but I don't know about London.

Thanks for your assistance.
