The affordable, durable EZ Way Stand Aid actively engages the patient in the standing process, thus reducing
the need for caregiver assistance. Its ability to fit through narrow doorways and 400 lb. safe working load makes it
an excellent wheelchair alternative for convenient patient transfers. Call EZ Way at 1-800-627-8940 to schedule
a product demonstration.
The EZ Way Stand Aid is a transfer assist unit which keeps residents active and engaged in the transferring
process. Transfers are quick and require minimal caregiver assistance. Users simply grasp the middle bar and pull
themselves up. A padded split seat swings out for loading or unloading then swings back to form a comfortable,
secure seat for transport. It is an excellent alternative to a wheelchair for easier commode access.
For safe operation of the EZ Way Stand Aid, operators should read through this manual, complete the
competency checklist, and practice on fellow staff members before use with patients.
Safety Notes
The EZ Way Stand Aid is a manual standing aid to allow patients to assist themselves in preparation for
transferring. Patients qualified to use the EZ Way Stand Aid should have adequate arm strength to pull
themselves upward and enough leg strength to support their own weight. Patients who meet this criteria and
have difficulty walking will find the EZ Way Stand Aid a useful and safe transferring device. The Stand Aid
is positioned between a traditional walker and electric stand assist lift in terms of function. Once the resident
has positioned themselves on board, the split seat can easily be placed securely and allow the resident to sit
comfortably while a caregiver performs the transfer. For residents lacking the strength to assist themselves, an EZ
Way Smart Stand®or EZ Way Smart Lift®is recommended.
The EZ Way Stand Aid is capable of the following transfers when used according to the instructions:
1) Bed to Chair/Wheelchair
2) Bed/Chair/Wheelchair to commode
3) Room to Room
These instructions should be kept with the EZ Way Smart Stand Aid at all times. Instructions can also be
downloaded from EZ Way’s website www.ezlifts.com.

WARNING:

instructions may cause serious injury.
WARNING:

transfer.
WARNING:

Seat usage instructions
The two black molded seat units can be rotated
upwards to allow for patient loading. Once the
patient is in an upward standing position the split
seats must be lowered down to form a complete
two-sided seat. Always make sure each of the two
seat components are properly lowered and locked,
forming a complete seat prior to having the patient
sit down.
Instructions for use and transport
1) Raise the two split seat units up and parallel to
the side of the EZ Way Stand Aid as shown
below.
2) Have the patient positioned at the edge of the
surface and move the EZ Way Stand Aid in front
of the patient so that their feet are firmly on the
platform and knees/shins are in contact with the
two cupped knee/shin pads as shown below.
3) Lock the casters by stepping on the caster clip
and pushing down as shown below.
4) Have the patient grasp the cross bar closest to
them and using their own strength, pull
themselves up into a standing position firmly on
the platform as shown below.
5) Lower both of the split seat units down into
position to form a complete seat as shown below.
Confirm seat locks are engaged.

6) Have the patient lower themselves down onto
the seat while keeping their knees/shins in the
knee/shin pads and while still holding the cross
bar with both hands as shown below. Make sure
both seat locks are locked in place.
7) Unlock the casters and place both hands on the
cross bar furthest from the patient and move the
EZ Way Stand Aid to the new surface. Make sure
the patient is secure and in proper position as
described in Step 6 above prior and during
transfer as shown below.
Once the EZ Way Stand Aid has been positioned
against the new surface, the following steps are
required
1) Position the EZ Way Stand Aid against the new
surface ensuring the patient will be in a position
to sit down firmly and safely on the new surface.
2) Lock the casters.
3) Have the patient pull themselves back up to a full
standing position.
4) Unlock and raise the two split seat units up to
a parallel position to allow the patient to lower
themselves.
5) Stand beside the patient as they lower themselves
down onto the new surface.
6) Make sure the patient is safely positioned then
unlock the casters and move the EZ Way Stand
Aid to storage.

Accessories
The EZ Way Stand Aid is designed to fully support a seated patient for transfer. For patients requiring some upper
body support or additional security, a safety belt may be used. Either the Standard or Extra Large seat belt is
designed to work with the EZ Way Stand Aid. Please see the pictures below for the use of these slings:

and tighten any worn assemblies prior to using the EZ Way Stand Aid.
2) Check the two seat assemblies to make sure they are not worn or damaged and that the bolts are tight.
Replace any worn or damaged seat components prior to using the EZ Way Stand Aid.
3) Check the casters to make sure they are in working order and are secured firmly to the EZ Way Stand Aid.
Replace any worn or damaged casters prior to using the EZ Way Stand Aid.
