Stand Independently with a Sara Stedy Standing Aid
“The Sara® Stedy and Sara® Stedy Compact are a further development of the successful Stedy® aid by Arjo, a proven mobility-promoting support tool that encourages more mobile residents/patients to stand up independently. The Sara Stedy product line comes in two size variations for patients of different heights.
HME Offers all size variations of the Sara Steady including:
Sara Stedy
Designed for patients 149-193 cm (4’11”-6’6”) tall and weighing up to 182 kg (400 lb).
Sara Stedy Compact
Designed for smaller patients, 138-172 cm (4’6”-5’8”) tall and weighing up to 182 kg (400 lb).
Overview
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
- it enables good, reassuring eye contact between the resident/patient and caregiver, unlike a wheelchair
- it provides transportation to the toilet and washbasin, and can support a wide range of other everyday activities
With a number of new improvements, the Sara Stedy helps to minimise 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.
