Why we know this works!
Why we know this works!
We love this sit to stand lift because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we meet caregivers whose backs are wearing out from lifting a loved one many times a day. Who can safely use a sit to stand lift? Someone who can bear partial weight through their legs but cannot get to standing alone. Place the sling around their back, set their feet on the footplate with knees against the pad, and the remote raises them to standing so one caregiver can manage the transfer safely. It supports up to 400 pounds and comes with the sling.
It is especially valuable after a stroke and for Parkinson's or multiple sclerosis when the legs still hold some weight. If your loved one cannot bear any weight or sit upright, a full body lift is needed instead. It may also go through insurance with a physician's order stating max assist of two to transfer; our free Getting Durable Medical Equipment Through Insurance guide walks you through it.
