QuickMove Sit-to-Stand Aid

Safe and Secure Sit-to-Stand and Transfer

QuickMove is a highly effective manual sit-to-stand and transfer aid designed to support and activate users during rising, standing, and transfer movements. It enables safe and controlled transfers between common positions such as bed to chair, chair to chair, and to and from the toilet, either in a standing or seated position. By encouraging active participation, QuickMove helps users maintain dignity, independence, and functional ability during everyday mobility tasks.

QuickMove has been specifically developed for users with impaired balance and reduced strength in the legs who are still able to weight-bear and have some strength in their arms. This makes it particularly suitable for individuals who can contribute to the movement but require additional stability and reassurance. By supporting the user’s own effort rather than replacing it, QuickMove promotes natural movement patterns and active engagement throughout the transfer process.

Safeguards and Strengthens the User’s Abilities

One of the key benefits of QuickMove is its ability to provide a safer sit-to-stand procedure for both the user and the carer, while simultaneously helping to preserve and strengthen the user’s remaining abilities. The design reduces physical strain on carers by providing controlled support at critical stages of the movement, while also ensuring the user remains actively involved.

QuickMove is suitable for both long-term and occasional use. It is particularly valuable in post-operative care or rehabilitation settings, where balance or strength may be temporarily impaired. In these situations, QuickMove supports recovery by allowing users to practise standing and transferring in a secure and structured way, helping to rebuild confidence and functional strength over time.

Once the user has risen using their own strength, the cushions positioned behind the buttocks can be folded down by either the user or the carer to provide stable and comfortable support. At this stage, the user can choose to remain standing or sit down during the transfer. This flexibility allows QuickMove to adapt to individual preferences, energy levels, and clinical needs.

The combination of adjustable buttock cushions and the lower leg support with knee-brace creates a highly stable transfer environment. These features help to maintain correct positioning, reduce the risk of slipping, and provide reassurance throughout the movement. When the user is ready to stand again, the cushions can be angled to assist the rising motion, with the carer gently guiding the movement using the integrated handle.

Stable, Robust, and User-Focused Design

QuickMove features a robust and stable construction capable of supporting users weighing up to 170 kg (375 lbs). Despite its strength, the device is compact and easy to manoeuvre, making it suitable for use in a wide range of care environments, including hospitals, rehabilitation units, residential care settings, and private homes.

The design of QuickMove actively stimulates a natural movement pattern, encouraging the user to rise and stand in a way that mirrors everyday functional motion. This not only enhances comfort and confidence but also supports long-term mobility outcomes by reinforcing correct movement mechanics.

Individually Adapted Solutions Through Accessories

The BackSupport accessory can be added to offer torso and side support, increasing stability for users who require extra reassurance during transfers.

Its adjustable design, robust construction, and compatibility with supportive accessories make it an excellent choice for both short-term rehabilitation and long-term mobility support, benefiting users and carers alike.
