the drawings depict a standing station generally designated 10 . fig1 depicts the preferred embodiment of the standing station 10 . the slanted sections of the frame 16 are supporting the grab bars 13 . the uppermost section of the frame 14 has a peg 19 that enables the caregiver to secure the patient with an ordinary bedsheet . fig2 depicts a patient semi - kneeling on the standing station while the caregiver holds onto the frame of the device and stabilizes it with one foot . the standing platform 15 is essentially at floor level 22 , and the wheel mounts 11 do not extend past the back edge of the standing platform . this allows the standing station to be moved sideways relative to chairs , commodes , beds and wheelchairs without moving away from the safety of the seating surface . it also means that the maneuverability of the standing station will be unaffected by power cords , brake levers or other obstacles found under hospital beds . the leg abutment pad 12 allows the patient to shift weight forward over their feet and onto the pad . the leg abutment pad provides a weight bearing surface to semi - kneel on , and directs the patient &# 39 ; s heels to the back edge of the standing platform 15 . the grab bars 13 are supported by the slanted sections of the frame 16 with the lowest grab bar being closest to the patient . the slanted sections of the frame 16 and the uppermost section of the frame 14 can be used as grab bars as well as guard - rails to prevent loss of control of the semi - kneeling patient 17 while being transported . the uppermost section of the frame 14 has a peg 22 that allows the use of an ordinary bed - sheet 21 to secure the patient . the caregiver 20 stabilizes the standing station by placing one foot on the standing platform 15 while the patient rises from sitting to standing or vice versa . fig3 depicts a standing station 10 abutted against a seating surface 23 . the seating surface could be a bed , chair , wheelchair or commode . note that the wheel mounts 12 do not protrude past the back edge of the standing platform 15 so the standing station 10 can be moved left , right or abutted to the seating surface 23 regardless of what is under the seating surface . it is also important to see that the standing platform 15 is at essentially floor level 22 so standing on the standing station is virtually the same as standing on the floor . this is important because the higher the standing platform is relative to the seating surface , the harder it is for the patient to stand up . when the standing station is abutted against the seating surface 23 , the leg abutment pad 12 is the correct distance from the seating surface . the seated patient 18 can easily reach a grab bar , and the device sits him / her far enough back on the bed to insure safety . the patient &# 39 ; s legs are supported the entire time by the leg abutment pad to prevent unexpected buckling of the knees . the standing station can be constructed from any combination of wood , metal or plastic as long as the spacial relationship between the standing platform , leg abutment pad , grab bars , uppermost section of the frame , wheel mounts and the floor is maintained . to use the device , the caregiver rolls it up to a seated patient , helps the patient put his / her feet on the standing platform , and pushes the device toward the patient until the frame or standing platform abuts firmly against whatever the patient is sitting on . if necessary , a bed - sheet can be used to assist and secure the patient . the sheet is placed around the patient &# 39 ; s torso and twisted as depicted in fig2 . twisting the sheet tightens it around the patient &# 39 ; s torso and essentially creates a rope that can be used to assist the patient . each patient would get a fresh sheet so there is no problem with patient to patient cross contamination . the caregiver then assists the patient to scoot forward until their legs contact the leg abutment pad . the caregiver makes sure the patient &# 39 ; s heels are near the back edge of the standing platform , and stabilizes the device by applying a downward force to the caregiver side of the device with one foot as shown in fig2 . the caregiver &# 39 ; s arms are free to assist the patient . the caregiver then instructs the patient to reach for the highest and furthest grab bar or frame section they can comfortably reach . as the patient begins to stand , the caregiver pulls on the sheet . the patient works with the caregiver to get to a semi - kneeling position on the leg abutment pad 12 . the caregiver then secures the patient by binding the sheet to the uppermost section of the frame 14 . this is accomplished by bringing the sheet over the top of the uppermost section of the frame , then down and around the peg 19 and back up to the uppermost section of the frame . the caregiver holds the end of the sheet in place while gripping the frame , and rolls the patient to a new location with virtually no risk of over exertion . once in front of the new seating surface , the device is stabilized by the caregiver and the process is reversed as the patient sits down . when used for therapeutic exercise , the caregiver brings the standing station to the bedside and helps the patient get into the position that is depicted in fig3 . the caregiver then stabilizes the device while the patient uses their arms and legs to alternately stand and sit . extremely weak patients now have a safe way to regain functional strength at the bedside with essentially no risk of falling . there are many ways to vary the frame design or the sheet binding system without departing from the scope of the invention , the benefits of which have been outlined above . the substance of this invention is the spacial relationship between the standing platform 15 , leg abutment pad 12 , grab bars 13 , wheel mounts 11 , uppermost section of the frame 14 , peg 19 and floor level 22 as shown in fig1 - 3 .
