Handrail Scales

For patients who are older, ill or frail — or just not steady on their feet — physician scales and wheelchair scales with built-in handrails make the weighing process much easier. Handrail scales, by their design, have extra stabilization and are very convenient for patients and doctors, medical offices, retirement homes, and group homes.

Wheelchair users, older patients, persons with balance issues, and people recovering from injury are often wary of how they can safely step onto a scale, a necessary procedure for accurate and appropriate medical care and proper prescription dosing. Handrail scales take away part of the trepidation by providing a way for patients to steady themselves as the step on to the scale.

Wheelchair accessible handrail scales benefit from the extra stabilization handrails provide and give the wheelchair-bound patient a sense of security until chair wheels are locked in place to prevent rolling.

All the models we offer feature accuracy, a nod to safety, and portability — and we’ll be delighted to discuss which one is right for you.
