What is a Raizer Chair?
The Raizer chair is mobile lifting device designed to help someone get up from the floor after they have fallen.
A smarter falls recovery solution, the Raizer works as a standing assist device and is faster and more stable than traditional equipment to lift someone off the floor after a fall.
This falls recovery device is a quick and dignified way to transfer loved one or patient who has fallen to a sitting or standing position with only one carer needed.
The Raizer is a truly single-handed solution to lifting a fallen person from the floor.
What Falls Recovery Equipment is Currently Used?
Currently equipment used to lift someone off the floor includes; ceiling and mobile hoists with slings, inflatable lifting cushions, lift trollies, step ladder devices or hydraulic/mechanical human floor lift devices.
These lifting aids all have individual drawbacks, from poor portability to a slow lifting process. Some lifting equipment may also require body strength from the person who is being lifted or multiple carers to operate the device.
How Is Raizer Different From Other Lifting Equipment?
The Raizer chair removes these barriers and is a highly mobile lifting aid that will help elderly, disabled or low mobility fallers stand up in just a few minutes.
The Raizer Lifting Chair is more stable than an inflatable lifting device, more portable than a traditional mechanised floor lift and is quicker than a hoist and sling method of lifting a fallen person from the floor.
The Raizer also requires no physical input from the person being picked up from the floor during the lift process. The Raizer 2 can be controlled by remote and operated by just one carer or a loved one if in a home environment.
Choose between two versions of the Raizer Chair.
- The Raizer 2 — A fully electric lifting chair that comes with an easy to use remote.
- The Raizer M — A more cost-effective manual solution to falls recovery at home.
How does the Raizer 2 Lifting Chair Work?
