The Rice Lake # 100232 Healthweigh Chair Weight Scale for Elderly and Infirm Patients

Posted on 4th, 2009 by Jessica

For some of us weighing ourselves is a regular affair, especially when we are trying to keep an eye on our weight. But weighing is also a part of medical check-ups. Be it a child, an adult, or an elderly patient, body weight is considered as an important indicator of one’s health. For most of us, stand-on scales will easily serve the purpose. Not so when it comes to elderly patients or those with limited mobility. Though it is only a matter of minutes, or even seconds, before the scale displays your body weight, making the effort to step on the scale to check the weight might be too tiring and distressing for them. To make things easier for such patients and their caretakers, we have chair scales, in which a patient can remain seated during the weighing process.
