The Lumex Stand Assist is a manual standing aid that requires patients to assist
themselves in preparation for transport. Patients qualied to use the Stand Assist
must have adequate arm strength to pull themselves upward and enough leg
strength to support their own weight. Patients who meet these criteria and have
difculty walking will nd the Stand Assist a useful transport device. Functionally,
the Stand Assist is positioned between a traditional walker and a battery powered
sit-to-stand lift. The Stand Assist is a convenient toileting alternative to a wheelchair.
Once the resident has positioned themself on board, the split seat can be positioned
to allow the resident to sit comfortably while a caregiver performs the transport.
For residents lacking the strength to assist themselves, we recommend a battery
powered sit-to-stand lift.
The Stand Assist is capable of the following transfers when used according to the
instructions:
• Bedtochair/wheelchair
• Bed/chair/wheelchairtocommode
• Roomtoroom
