Sara Flex enables a single caregiver to assist a patient or resident from a seated to a standing position, in one natural movement. Promotes comfort and security throughout and at the completion of the sit-to-stand movement. Designed with ease of use for the single caregiver in mind, with no adjustments required. Forward movement, combined with the flexible leg support, enables a natural and comfortable sit-to-stand movement. The Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) at the University of Stirling has reviewed Sara Flex and awarded it a DSDC Product Accreditation Rating Class 1B.
Features & Benefits
- Curved design with a soft and flexible surface that supports the lower legs and knees throughout the sit-to-stand movement. Requiring no adjustments, the large surface caters for a broad range of patients while delivering good comfort.
- Positioned low and with multiple adjustment options to ensure patients can be securely positioned from a seated to a standing position.
- The hand control is on a long flexible cord that enables the caregiver to stay close to the patient throughout the transfer.
- Curved handle enables the caregiver to choose where to hold.
- The contrast-colored angled patient handle positions the hands, wrists and elbows throughout the sit-to-stand movement.
- Keeping the patient’s feet close to the ground means their knees are not raised too high, making it easier to stand.
- Built in electronic scale shows the patient’s weight on the display of the hand control. (Optional)
