Patient transfers are one of the most common causes of injury for both patients and caregivers. A single slip can result in a dangerous fall, while aides often experience muscle strain from lifting and supporting patients repeatedly throughout the day.
The Arjo Sara Stedy provides a safe, practical, and dignified solution. Designed for individuals with sufficient upper-body strength to pull themselves upright, this manual, non-powered stand aid allows patients to transition securely between surfaces — such as from a bed to a wheelchair — with minimal caregiver assistance.
For caregivers, the Sara Stedy reduces physical strain and enhances safety during daily transfers, creating a more comfortable and efficient care routine.
The Sara Stedy is designed to promote patient independence and assist caregivers with safe, efficient transfers. Built for durability and ease of use, it helps encourage mobility and active participation during standing transitions.
Provides angled seated support to help patients move comfortably into a standing position during transfers.
The Sara Stedy and Sara Stedy Compact models accommodate patients of varying sizes and clinical needs, offering flexible care solutions.
Designed for patients between 4'11" and 6'6" tall (149–193 cm) and weighing up to 400 lbs (182 kg).
Soft knee pads provide comfort and stability, helping patients raise themselves into a standing position while cushioning their legs during transfer.
Easy-to-use foot pedals adjust the chassis width for improved access to wide chairs or wheelchairs.
Allows patients to actively participate by pulling themselves upward, promoting independence and engagement during mobility tasks.
Encourages patients to stay active and engaged, supporting early mobility initiatives and faster recovery outcomes.
Streamlines sitting-to-standing transfers with ergonomic design and easy caregiver operation, reducing strain and improving safety.

The Sara Stedy Sit-to-Stand Lift is thoughtfully engineered to promote safer, more dignified transfers while supporting both patients and caregivers. Every detail is designed to enhance mobility, stability, and independence.
The innovative cross-bar handle allows patients to pull themselves forward and upward, promoting active participation during standing transfers. This pulling motion is gentler and more natural than pushing, helping to reduce the risk of urine leakage while maintaining comfort and dignity throughout the process.
For caregivers, integrated handgrips built into the seat make maneuvering and turning effortless, improving overall control and ease of use. The pedal-operated leg adjustment eliminates the need to bend or kneel, enabling caregivers to adjust the base from a standing position safely and efficiently.
The Sara Stedy’s total-lock castors provide exceptional stability when the lift is stationary, creating a secure environment for patient transfers. Meanwhile, the low-profile chassis and small castors enhance accessibility, allowing patients to position themselves comfortably from a seated position and improving maneuverability in tight spaces.

The Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) at the University of Stirling has reviewed and awarded the Sara Stedy a DSDC Product Accreditation Rating of Class 1B, recognizing its design excellence in supporting individuals living with dementia.
