Another GREAT item for someone after having shoulder surgery to have help get in/out of the shower with a tub lip to get legs over in tub to the shower. I literally have a hard time getting both of my legs over the tub to get to the shower having Cerebral Palsy. It's VERY difficult! This will come in VERY handy!! Thank you SO much!! I'm LOVING all your great tips & items!! I've literally bought quite a few items from you already! (The toilet seat riser, bed rails, the bed puller, hand held exfoliater to wash hair, long held handle to wash your back, hand grabber & many other things) I'm currently in the process of getting things ready for my shoulder surgery. (I seriously wish I could talk to you personally via email or facebook) that would be so awesome & very helpful to me! ;)
Great video! Way to rep OT glad to find this on TH-cam! I hope you catch on and get as big as Bob Brad “the most famous physical therapists on the internet”!
I'm having a total right knee replacement in three weeks and have a very high bed at home. Also, my husband drives an SUV and I was worried about how I was going to get into it when he picks me up after surgery. Do you think this will be a good option for me or will it be too challenging for a knee replacement? Thank you in advance.
I think this would be a good option. It can be raised and lowered to accommodate your tolerance for stepping. Just remember to always step up leading with your non-surgical leg and down leading with the surgical leg. Good luck!
Would this stool w handle help me enter my Dad’s house which has a high threshold and no railing? There’s nothing to hold onto in the foyer to pull me in either. I used to visit a lot but that’s decreased these last few years specifically because I have difficulty walking into his house without help (& it’s rather embarrassing tbh).
I am short and have a bad back making it really hard for me to get into high suvs. I need a stool I can use to get into the vehicle and then can pick up by myself to take into the vehicle. I cant bed over far enough to lift a step stool from the ground. Do you know of a lightweight option where the user can lift it up and into vehicle on their own? I have looked all over the Internet, phrasing it in as many ways I can think of for search engines but am not finding anything. Thanks.
Unfortunately, I don't know of one that would specifically solve that problem. The folding style do not come with handles. Perhaps it's something I should look into manufacturing!
Can be, it does have height variability that allows it to be set to less than half the height of a standard step, which may be doable for someone with mild-moderate knee trouble. Best case scenario is not needing to use a step stool at all though!
@@EquipMeOT Both my parents have knee problem and they're having difficulty riding both Lexus ES or the GX! One is too low and the other too high! I am wondering which vehicle would be very convenient for them?! Because I don't think this tool might be very useful for them! Any suggestions? Thnx
My mom recently had surgery. This step stool clip was very helpful. Thank you!
You're welcome!

Yes, this would be a viable option for that purpose.

@@EquipMeOT Thanks for reply. If you do I will buy the first one :)
That's great that YOU can do that but how about showing us caregivers how to help our patients to do it safely.
Price please
It's going to be hard for person with knee problems

@@EquipMeOT Actually my mom uses rollator which is even more difficult to manage her getting in and out of a vehicle's back seat without help!
