EasyTurn Swivel Cushion
The Immedia EasyTurn Swivel Cushion is a clever, compact swivel cushion designed to reduce friction when turning and repositioning. The cushion simply sits under the buttocks and helps you turn with reduced strain to the back, hips, or knees. It’s simple to use and easy to carry wherever needed. It’s perfect to help get in and out of bed, to transfer in and out of the car seat, and to transfer to and from a chair. Available in three sizes (40, 45, and 50 cm diameter), with a maximum user weight of 287 pounds.
Car Cane
The car cane is a game changer, and something physical therapists wish more caregivers knew about. It connects to the door latch so the individual can hold on to it for support while getting into and out of the car. It’s perfect for those who have undergone a recent surgery, are experiencing a new onset of pain, or have had a decline in mobility or balance.
Automobility Solution
The Automobility Solution is an all-in-one product that makes getting in and out of a car easy. This combo pack includes a Swivel-Seat-Cushion to help pivot legs and a Handy Bar to assist with entering and exiting the car for stress-free travel. The non-slip handle makes it easy to sit and stand from the car. It fits on any door latch with no vehicle modification required, and supports up to 350 pounds.
