The StanZa holder is a unique healthcare/homecare/disability/mobility aid product ergonomically designed to hold crutches, walking sticks and other walking aids, upright and securely. Close at hand where they need to be. This freestanding product weighs just 2.8kg (6lb) and is made of powder-coated steel, so it is very durable and easily portable. Ideal for under-arm and forearm crutches.
Crutches by their very nature are cumbersome and top-heavy. They are hard to prop up and often fall over causing their own trip hazard – an unnecessary and avoidable risk.
Users with mobility problems need their walking aid next to them – not propped up against a wall or furniture some distance away! Crutch users face daily challenges doing routine tasks and need the confidence of knowing that once in place, their walking aids are secure and immediately accessible. Next to a bed, a favourite chair, in the kitchen, bathroom or WC. Stowed safely until they are needed.
The unique design of the StanZa ensures that crutches and other walking aids can easily be loaded and released from the device, providing instant accessibility for the user. The device has an exclusive feature, the ‘dog-leg’ retaining slots ensure that the shaft of the walking aid never ‘bounces back’ when parked there. But is easily released back through the ‘gate’.
StanZa devices are increasingly used in public and medical facilities: hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation and physiotherapy units, nursing homes, gyms, consulting rooms, doctors’ surgeries and reception areas. Patients are more independent because their walking aids are close at hand, freeing up medical staff for other duties. Using StanZa in high traffic public areas, avoids the trip hazard of fallen crutches. Patients, medical staff and third parties are protected, a Health and Safety risk averted.
StanZa holders are popular in the commercial environment too. In offices and other workspaces, restaurants, hotels, hairdressers, beauty salons and waiting rooms.
A great ‘get well’ present, the StanZa gives them the most useful item the crutch user needs right now!
