New Wheelchair Scales For Group Homes, Day Programs, Schools, and Doctor’s Offices

As a provider of durable medical equipment (DME), including patient lifts, which support the improved life quality, independence, and safety of those living with disability and/or aging in place, Lift & Care Systems is pleased to announce a new, related product offering. We recently became an authorized dealer of SR Scales® wheelchair scales from SR Instruments, an innovative, highly regarded, maker of high-performing and high-quality medical and non-medical scales, as well as other instruments.  

We’re proud and pleased that we will now be able to provide group homes, schools, day programs, and doctor’s offices with the means to safely, easily and effectively monitor the weight of wheelchair-bound or sedentary individuals under their care.

SR Scales wheelchair scales can bear the weight of a wheelchair and certain other heavy forms of transport/furniture, and therefore, allow for an individual to be weighed while sitting in their wheelchair or in a chair. However you refer to them – roll-on wheelchair scales, roll-on scales, wheelchair weight scales, or weighing scales for wheelchairs -- wheelchair scales allow individuals to roll or maneuver their wheelchair directly on to the scale, or for caregivers to position an individual in a wheelchair or chair on top of the scale.
