Altimate Medical Introduces the New EasyStand Evolv
Altimate Medical is proud to introduce the new EasyStand Evolv. The EasyStand Evolv is the next generation of the current EasyStand Series. Altimate Medical's Product Development Team has made significant improvements to the EasyStand based on feedback from customers around the world.
The EasyStand Evolv's most noteworthy change is in the lifting design which mimics the body's natural pivot points, minimizing shear. The Evolv's redesigned modular base allows various options like the sit-to-stand desk, self-propelled mobility, or the "Active Standing" Glider to be added at anytime. Alan Tholkes, President & CEO of Altimate Medical points out, "Previously, our customers had to choose between ordering the EasyStand 5000 and the EasyStand 6000 Glider. With the EasyStand Evolv, our customers can order the Glider option at a later date."
Transfers into the EasyStand Evolv are easier because of its wider seat and open base, which allow the user's wheelchair to be positioned closer to the stander. The open base also allows lifts to be used when transferring a person into the stander. Tholkes adds, "The new design and modular options of the EasyStand Evolv will make standing achievable for more people."
Altimate Medical manufactures standing technology that focuses on health and independence for kids and adults with disabilities. For more information on the new EasyStand Evolv contact Altimate Medical at 800-342-8968 or visit our website at www.easystand.com
