GETTING OUT OF A CHAIR

Sunrise Medical recommends wherever possible, the use of a chair with a 
high seat height and arms to assist you with standing up and sitting down 
more easily.    
1. Have the rolllator ahead of you with brakes parked. 

i.e. brake handles 

pushed fully down with an audible click (see fig 1)

2. Move forward and sit as close to the edge of the chair as you feel 
comfortable. 
3. Keep your feet as far under you as possible. 
4. Try to position your toes below the edge of the chair. 
5. Place both hands on the arms/seat of your chair OR one hand on the 
chair and one hand on the rollator 

Caution 

Do not tip the rollator by placing too much weight on one side as 

you start to stand. 

6. Lean forward until you feel some of your weight on your feet. 
7. Use your legs to stand as much as possible – your arms should only lift 
what your legs cannot. Use your arms mostly to help keep your balance as 
you stand. 
8. Do not walk forward until you have tested your balance and you feel 
strong enough to walk. 
9. When ready disengage the brakes. 

i.e. brake handles pulled up with an 

audible click (see fig 2)
