Rifton Supine Stander - Large

Medical Benefits of Standing Frame

Rifton supine stander - Large promote upright social interactions at the same eye-level as a client's peers. Supine stander enables vertical standing for adults and children with special needs. Using a vertical stander can strengthen core muscles and improve weight-bearing, weight-shifting and trunk control. Adjustable supports on the standing aid allow for functional alignment, with the client's arms free for activities. Positioning someone with special needs in a standing position is the first step to facilitating bone and muscle development and maintaining range of motion in addition to encouraging better functioning of the body’s internal systems. Supine standing provides many therapeutic benefits, including head support with partial weight-bearing.

• Easier transfers: The large Supine Stander provides horizontal adjustments of the mainboard from 21" to 30", making transfers to the stander easier from a wheelchair or bed.
• Standing option for medically involved patients: The firm mainboard of the Supine Stander allows users with significant musculoskeletal weakness secondary to prolonged immobilization the opportunity to be positioned upright. Stability is provided posteriorly making it a comfortable option for users with tracheotomy.
• For gradual progression to an upright position: The angle-adjustable stander is effective for assisting individuals to a standing position who have been bedridden for a long time.
