The EasyStand StrapStand is a strap-style stander for adults from 5' to 6'5'' (152-196 cm) and up to 350 lbs (159 kg). The StrapStand can accommodate many unique needs of wheelchair users, from those with low-level spinal cord injuries to multi-user settings. The StrapStand lifts you directly from your wheelchair, bed, or other seated surface into the standing position. Benefits of the EasyStand StrapStand include:
- No-transfer needed –If you are not capable of, or may not feel comfortable with transferring, you can use the StrapStand because no transfer is needed.
- Over-center stretch – For specific body-types, the StrapStand can provide the maximal over-center stretch needed for the optimum standing posture.
- Familiarity in nursing homes – Since it has some features similar to a patient lift, both clinical staff and patients feel more accustomed to it in an assisted living setting.
- Compliance – When transfers or patient lifting are a concern for staff or caregivers, a standing program can still be practiced because transferring is not required.
