I fractured my right hip and wrist. After 5 months I'm transferring from a walker to a quad cane. Your demonstration and explanation is the best. As a senior I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.👍
Just received my quad cane and I'm eager to begin getting around. Please let me know how I can change the position of the foot because MY RIGHT LEFT is the weakest and I need to use the cane with my left hand. Thanks you very much for your prompt response. Pearl
Good question @pearlie9851. If you are using an aluminum quad cane which is the most common, there is a ball bearing coming through the hole in the middle section of the quad cane. Loosen the knob near the base of the quad cane. Then press the ball in and turn the foot around. There should be another ball bearing that will pop out once the foot is facing the other side. Tighten the know again. You can now use this on the other side. I hope this helps.
Good question Kevin. You can watch my video on how to get up from the floor after knee replacement. I think that will give you a good idea. Hope this helps.
I know what you mean @jttitus-zg7mf. Turn the feet of the quad cane to the other side. That will solve the problem. I will make a note to create a video showing this.
Thanks for watching this video!
Thank you for the guidance. This is helpful to use with my family member recovering from stroke.
You're welcome @MsButtercup08! I'm happy I can help. I wish you and your family the best.🙏

Thank you. First time having to use a cane or any device for support. Had right knee surgery for meniscus tear with some stitches.
You're welcome Connie. Hope this helps. Good luck on your recovery. Make sure to do your exercises to get get your mobility back.
I began using a quad cane today and thanks to you. I now know how to use it correctly. Thank you very much.
Just bought one so am happy to see this video I want to stop using my 3 wheel walker.
I hope it helps @marionsmith3851. Wish you the best!🙏
u are very helpful but l would have liked for u to show how to put it together
Thank you @arleneolderman! What do you mean? The quad cane comes in 1 piece and is adjustable. Hope this clears things up.
How do you get yourself up from the ground with the quad cane if you fall on the floor
Good question Kevin. You can watch my video on how to get up from the floor after knee replacement. I think that will give you a good idea. Hope this helps.
If I keep the feet of the cane close to my side, I end up tripping on one as it is in the way when walking
