Arjo | Sara Flex Sit-to-Stand Lift | Safe, Comfortable Patient Transfers with Single-Caregiver Operation and Flexible Support
The Arjo Sara Flex Sit-to-Stand Lift, available from Alto Med Supply, is a reliable mobility aid designed to simplify daily transfers and care tasks for both patients and caregivers.
This innovative lift enables a single caregiver to assist an individual from a seated to a standing position in one smooth, natural movement—without the need for manual adjustments.
Engineered for comfort and ease of use, the Sara Flex features a flexible silicone leg support with a curved, soft-touch surface that gently supports the knees and lower legs throughout the movement.
Its low-positioned, adjustable leg strap enhances patient stability during transfers, accommodating a wide range of body types.
Designed to promote a forward, natural motion, this sit-to-stand lift helps encourage user participation while ensuring security throughout the transfer process.
The intuitive hand control, attached to a long flexible cord, allows caregivers to remain close to the patient, improving both safety and communication during use.
Additional features include a curved caregiver handle for ergonomic grip, a color-contrasted patient handle for proper arm positioning, and a low horizontal footplate that keeps feet close to the ground for easier standing.
For added functionality, the Sara Flex is also available with a built-in electronic scale that displays the patient's weight directly on the hand control ideal for care environments that require frequent monitoring.
Recognized for its thoughtful design, the Arjo Sara Flex holds a Class 1B Product Accreditation from the Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) at the University of Stirling, confirming its suitability for dementia-friendly care settings.
Whether in a home or professional care environment, the Arjo Sara Flex offers a practical, dignified solution for sit-to-stand transfers supporting independence, safety, and caregiver efficiency.
