Adjustable Height to Suit Most
The Shallow Walking Frame offers an adjustable height, ranging from 77cm to 98cm depending on model type. This means that it can cater to the needs of most users by ensuring it can be altered to a height that is most practical for the individual.
Not only will this benefit sole use, but it will also make it an ideal frame for use in a care home or hospital environment, where residents and patients respectively may be admitted with the need for instant access to mobility assistance. By adjusting the height accordingly, it can swiftly cater to varying needs.
Latex-Free Hand Grips
The frame includes two PVC hand grips onto which can be comfortably held during movement. This helps to increase the stability of the user, and with their latex-free construction they do so without risking irritation or allergic reaction.
Slip-Resistant Rubber Ferrules
For improved safety, the rubber ferrules on each leg are slip-resistant. This will be particularly paramount for anybody with limited balance, as it renders the frame ideal for reliably supporting the individual without slipping away. This will help to prevent any falls or trips that could result in injury to the user.
Optional Wheels
For anybody who would prefer the use of wheels, the Shallow Frame can be purchased with optional wheels instead of comprising all ferrules. This can smooth the transition from one side of the room or building to the other, and will be ideal for those who may struggle to lift up the frame to take a step.
Easy to Clean
Whether the walking frame is used by an individual or for multiple users of a period of time, it benefits from a robust frame that is easy to clean. The anodised aluminium construction is easy to wipe down and clean, helping to reduce the risk of the spread of germs. This will be paramount for ensuring user safety in a care environment, and will improve the use for individuals by allowing for a more hygienic walking aid.
