Frequently Asked Questions
Which patients are suitable candidates for the BestLift SA400?
The SA400 is designed for individuals who possess partial weight-bearing capability in their legs and upper-body strength to grasp the handles during standing. Completely non-weight-bearing patients require a passive full-body sling lift.

No, standing slings are sold separately so caregivers can choose the precise size, padding level, and support style tailored to the user's specific physical requirements.
