Product Description

Studies have shown that inappropriate bed and furniture heights are contributing factors to resident falls and accidents during transfers. The Stick-to-Stand ensures that adjustable furniture (beds, chairs, commodes, etc.) is set at the right height for the user. It enables you to correctly measure a person's lower leg length and then, without having to do any math, determine the correct furniture height for that person by simply following the color coded lines on the "stick". Correct furniture height facilitates the sit-to-stand motion and helps to maintain independent transfer and mobility skills. The risk of litigation due to transfer related falls is also reduced.
