SitNStand

Move With Confidence — Anywhere

RN-Recommended Portable Lift Assist Solutions

Nursing Liaisons partners with SitnStand because they solve a very specific — and very common — problem:

Difficulty rising from a seated position while still walking independently.

Many adults remain fully ambulatory but struggle with:

    • Low restaurant chairs
    • Car transfers
    • Waiting room seating
    • Soft couches
    • Repeated sit-to-stand movements

This is one of the most overlooked mobility limitations — and one of the biggest drivers of loss of independence.


The SitnStand Collection

SitnStand offers multiple lift assist solutions designed for different environments and needs.

🔹 Lift Assist Compact for Travel

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

SitnStand is appropriate for individuals who:

    • Walk independently
    • Have lower extremity weakness
    • Experience balance instability when rising
    • Avoid outings due to transfer difficulty
    • Fatigue with repeated standing

Not designed for:

    • Non-ambulatory individuals
    • Full mechanical lift replacement
    • Bariatric transfer needs

If unsure, we recommend a nursing or PT assessment.


Why This Matters

15–20% of adults over 65 report difficulty rising from a chair.
Mobility limitation is the most common functional impairment in older adults.

Chair-rise difficulty leads to:

    • Increased fall risk
    • Reduced social participation
    • Caregiver strain
    • Earlier transitions to higher levels of care

A portable lift assist removes a major barrier to independence.


Why Nursing Liaisons Recommends SitnStand

We evaluate mobility products through a clinical lens.

SitnStand:

    • Promotes active muscle engagement
    • Improves balance during transition
    • Reduces strain on caregivers
    • Preserves dignity
    • Is realistic for daily use

We do not recommend products that promote dependency when independence is achievable.
