The Whitehall Training Stairs are a popular option if your patients need an effective tool for increasing leg strength, reducing muscle atrophy, and regaining mobility and confidence. These products are designed like a classic staircase with a handrail and are ideal for patients to walk up or down while rehabilitating.
Each set is wide enough for most patients to use comfortably while having an adequate grip on each step to reduce the chance of falling. Handrails on both sides provide a secure place to hold onto, so patients can use their arms and legs when moving up and down. There are one-sided and two-sided staircase models, letting you choose the right style for the patient and rehabilitation routine.
Each staircase is made with 14 gauge stainless steel that's durable, rust-resistant, and intended to last years. A smooth finish looks stylish and is gentle to the touch, allowing patients to grip the handrails tight with less risk of injury.
The frame is strong enough to hold up to 800 pounds, allowing caretakers and patients to use the staircase simultaneously. The weight capacity also lets bariatric patients use the staircase with confidence.
You can choose from exercises involving standard stair climbing or descending, lateral movements, or practicing taking longer or shorter strides. Physical therapists can design unique workout programs for their patients and gradually increase the number of repetitions.
Choose a rehabilitation tool that helps patients reacclimate to the environment outside with the Whitehall Training Stairs.
