(Medical-NewsWire.com, August 05, 2014 ) Portland, Oregon -- Specialized design features of the Handy Cane are able to offer reliable support for the elderly who struggle to walk. This can ease the minds of family members who are responsible for their care, particularly if their elderly parents reside alone.
According to Brigham Young University's (BYU) School of Family Life, family members in the U.S. handle 80 percent of the care for their elderly parents. Finding trustworthy mobility equipment for their loved ones is paramount to peace of mind.
Several factors in the Handy Cane's design help in a senior citizen's ability to move about inside the home. The base involves a round center and four prongs, all with anti-skid material. This stabilizing, elastic foot creates a shock absorbing effect for the user. Ten height adjustments in the stout, steel handle allow for exact height adjustability of the Handy Cane to the user.
A multi-pronged base allows the Handy Cane to stand upright on its own, giving the user two hands to perform tasks. Comfort is enhanced with an open-palm grip on handle design. With more weight distributed across the open palm, the ergonomic handle encourages a natural hold, resulting in less strain on the user's wrist.
When all of the features of this mobility aid are taken together as a whole, the Handy Cane not only assists an elderly person in mobility about the house, but it adds peace-of-mind to a younger family member who takes charge of the senior's at-home care. Fear of falling is reduced. Plus, the Handy Cane allows for more exercise, thereby allowing for a more independent lifestyle by its user.
