Sara Stedy – Sit To Stand Assist
The enhanced standing aid concept has become well established in a wide range of care environments, such as in elderly care and healthcare facilities, because it:
- offers a more suitable and dignified alternative to a wheelchair for the more mobile residents/patients
- enables good, reassuring eye contact between the resident/patient and caregiver, unlike a wheelchair
- provides transportation to the toilet and washbasin
- can support a wide range of other everyday activities
With a number of new improvements, the Sara Stedy helps to minimize manual handling by caregivers in an even wider range of care environments. An increased inner width, a new seat shape and a higher safe working load of 182 kg, means the Sara Stedy can also be used to lift bariatric residents / patients. Enhanced features include a pivoting divided seat and pedal-operated chassis legs, for greater resident / patient comfort and support, and to improve working routines for caregivers.
