- It may look easy, but standing and sitting with a walker can cause a fall or injury if you don’t do it correctly. This video will show you how to safely sit to stand and then stand to sit with a walker. Watch Dr. Jo show how to use a walker: • How to Use a Walker Co...
The goal with the sit to stand with a walker is to not grab the walker and pull it towards you when trying to stand up. Scoot to the edge of your chair. Slide your strong leg slightly back. Put one hand on the seat of the chair or an armrest, and the other on the walker. Lean forward to shift your weight standing up. Then repeat this in reverse to sit down with the walker.

This helped me get up and walk after two months. Sending you a lot of prayers and love. Thank you Doctor Jo
You're welcome, and thanks.
Timely advise. Just had hip replacement with no instructions on using a walker. Thanks!
@ Janice MacEachern - You would think that the medical personnel wouldn't even allow you to leave the hospital without the proper training!!! Hope you're doing well!
You're welcome!
Yes, it is sad how little instruction is given for assistive devices :-(
Have a friend who recently had a bad fall and is using a walker. Will definitely share this video with him.
I hope it helps.
Great video! People really don't get trained to use walkers and tend to expect 3# of aluminum to support 100+ lbs pulling up, and preventing them from falling down.
Thanks! It's always surprising to see how little training people get.
Great technique in simple way... Ur body language is so positive always..... 👍👍
Thanks!
Thanks quick question, Mother watched this for herself, also she wanted to know how to properly walk, with out the front wheels, for a short demo. Its all good and new for her at 80 years young.
I have some more videos coming out for the walker soon!
Thank you , I am watching you from Egypt.
You're welcome.
Thank you for this video. Better to prevent an accident than heal from one afterwards.
You're welcome. Definitely!
Because of prostate cancer i am struggling to rise up from chairs so thank you for this advice, i may need it at a future date.
You're welcome.
She looks fit enough to flip up into a handstand on that wallker. Hopefully I will to in several months. I'm far from there now but its a start . Thanks!!
If I tried that, I would definitely need the walker afterwards! 😂
watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Best video so far. Thank you.
Thanks, and you're welcome.
Thank you so much for sharing the above. In my case my hip muscles are weak. Make several attempts to get up
It is hard work if you have one paralized foot. Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome.
I broke both of my legs 4 months ago, I’m now having to start using a walking but I can’t put any pressure on my right leg, I’m scared of falling forward is it the same way of getting up ?
It's the same.
Dr I had a stroke my Left side is weak, My right wrist is paining also, how can I get up out of my wheelchair
Thank you🙂
You're welcome.
Hi Dr. Jo 👋 I have a question. Mom is an overweight person with a none-bearing weight tolerance (ankle fractured, 4th week now), when she's stands up her good leg can't hold the whole weight (90kg), so someone needs to grab her from under the arms to help her stand up. This helps but it makes her so dependent. I'm not sure if we are we doing the right thing helping her out. What do you think? Is this correct? Thank you 🙏
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you And Thanks
You're welcome.
Hi Kali! Long time no see!
Kali says, woof!!
Nice video very good explanation
Thanks.
Does is matter which hand is on the walker and which one is on the chair?
Good information 😀 😀😀 😀
Thanks!
How far edge should i push myself before standing?
Thank u maam
You're welcome.
Biggest problem is commode. Nothing on left to grab, I'll try the seat later. Can't really scoot on toilet seat.😊 other seats I'm adding pillows & books.
You are so adorable, step one move the dog 😁😂🥰
🐾😎
I am a new amputee I have been very little training. Can use this method with someone to assist? Thank you.
It should still work. If you are not working with a physical therapist, that would really be the best option. They can help you figure out what will work best for you.
How can a person could get up from a sofa?
Very clear understandable and useful , thank you👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️🌹
You're welcome!
Awesome video
Thanks!
