Sure good initiative, but the patient still had a lot of strength to get up, what if it were patients with a lower degree of mobility?. But like I said it's a great initiative.
the Sara Lite would be a better solution, it’s an electrical hoist very similar to the Sara Stedy and it uses a belt and handles which sort of act as leverage and once you press an arrow the patient is slowly brought upwards
I find the fact that someone needs to wear rubber gloves to help a disabled person dehumanizing. When are medical equipment developers going to start considering the dignity of disabled people. This product would not work for me. I do not think the products are even made with people who have disabilities in mind. The person demonstrating does not have problems standing from sitting and does not require the aid of this device.
