Safe Step Stools For Senior Citizens

Have you seen a senior citizen in your neighborhood having difficulty getting in a car or on a bus? It is hard to find a safe step stool for your beloved family members that are aged or physically challenged. Many of us have loved ones whom are suffering from this difficulty due to some ailment or just aging. Some aging Americans may have just had surgery or a long confinement in the hospital that has made them and made it difficult to control their balance. It’s almost impossible for them to lift their legs from the ground 5 or 6 inches. It might be too risky for our beloved seniors to go out to dine with family or to see a doctor for check-up. It’s not that easy to get our seniors safely in any vehicle to transport them with this kind of condition.

There are independent retirement homes and some adult communities that are having the same problem with their seniors. And they have been trying to solve this problem by making their own wooden step stools out of plywood. Some communities use old wooden coca cola crates as step stool just to overcome this kind problem. Others have even tried to use piles of heavy block of wood for their seniors to step on in boarding the bus they are traveling on.  Directors of the said communities are challenged to find a more durable, light easy and safe step stool for their seniors. And looking for this kind of quality step stool shouldn’t have been hard! Hasn’t anyone out there have come up with an invention to solve this national problem?

There is a safe step stool that was specially designed for our beloved seniors. This step stool is called the Senior Step. This safe step stool is 6 inches high, it has a large top surface area, it has a rough sandpaper pad on the top so your seniors’ feet will not slide or slip while stepping on it and the color is bright yellow and black for them to see clearly.

The Senior Citizen population in the US is growing rapidly. This group of the population has special needs regarding their mobility. And this requires a step stool for them to move safely, especially when they travel. Most step stools are not user friendly to our seniors, but the Senior Step is! In fact, these step stools were designed with the help of 3 different directors of adult living communities and one director of nursing.

Safe Step Stool For Seniors

The Senior Citizens in the U.S. Population want to be independent regardless of their age and vigor. As much as possible they want to do things by themselves and not bother others. Just like for instance getting on and off the buses, they want to it by themselves and so they prefer a step stool that is easy to see, safe & sturdy to stand on and at the same time, a step stool that is light enough for the bus driver to pick up & store easily inside the bus while in transit.

The Senior Step Stool is easy to recognize for its bright yellow color that has a black sandpaper top for sure footing when stepping up to get on a bus or in a pickup truck. This lightweight step stool measures 24 inches x 14 inches. It measures 6 inches in height and has a weight of only 9 lbs. which is perfect for buses used by Assisted Living Centers, Churches, Independent Retirement Centers and transportation companies and departments.

Discharged patients from hospitals or surgery centers have the same need as seniors when getting into their vehicles to go home after a surgical procedure. We should consider that new out-patients are still lightheaded and have difficulty managing themselves physically into their vehicles. And that's where the Senior Step Stool works best. In this kind of situation the Senior Step stool provides patients a large enough surface so they could turn around and find their the edge of the car seat. In this way, the patient can easily turn on the seat and move their feet inside the car.

The height of the step stool which is 6 inches is just perfect to give a boost to all surgery patients who are trying to gently put themselves on their own vehicle. It is also a plus factor that this step stool is very durable and has no legs, meaning it has a continuous perimeter that contacts the ground that's why it's stable even on uneven ground. The perimeter wall on this step stool prevents a passenger's foot from getting under it, that could possibly hurt or injure ourselves.
