Mobile Stander

Provides mobility, independence and freedom to explore

Standing skills. Social skills.

Eye to eye, smile to smile – engaging with peers is so much more rewarding for individuals with special needs when they can interact in an upright and mobile position. And the Mobile Stander, a mobile prone stander, makes it easy – even for those with no weight-bearing ability. NOTE: This product was formerly the Dynamic Stander.

The Mobile Stander provides new independence and standing mobility for wheelchair-bound clients. More importantly, this Mobile Stander helps strengthen critical motor skills so a user can progress toward independent standing.

  • Freedom to participate
    Remove its large wheels, and the Mobile Stander easily rolls right up to a table or a counter enabling participation in crafts and other stationary activities.
  • Skillbuilding in action
    With regular use, the Mobile Stander provides a way for clients to strengthen motor skills and work toward independent standing.

Features

The Mobile Stander rolls easily and supports standing mobility from non-weight-bearing to full weight-bearing.

The body support adjusts according to the user’s size and requirements. A child who is 25″ tall fits into the mini Mobile Stander, while the large Mobile Stander can accommodate a young adult up to 65″ tall.

Optional arm prompts help clients develop greater head and shoulder control. They can be removed as control improves.

The optional and fully adjustable communication tray holds small objects or activities for easy access while standing.

A soft fleecy strap provides the client with back or neck support while standing.

Our unique, adjustable seat pad allows gradual increases in weight-bearing and develops standing mobility skills. The Mobile Stander supports zero weight-bearing clients, enabling even double amputees to be upright and mobile.

Knee straps provide abduction when desired. (Extras are available on request.)

Optional large wheels pop on and off with the push of a button. Wheel locks provide security, spoke guards protect fingers, and hand rims keep hands clean. This photo shows the Mobile Stander in use without the large wheels.

The Mobile Stander’s large wheels each come with a lock that the user can operate to keep his or her stander firmly in place. Once ready to move, the wheel locks can be easily released.

The Mobile Stander’s deck is extra wide for simpler transfers and more user participation in the sit-to-stand process which is so vital in achieving standing mobility.

Large casters allow the Mobile Stander to move easily during activities, yet lock securely during transfer.
