My wife falls at least once a week, usually in the middle of the night. Fall may be a harsh term. It's more like running out of energy followed by a slow slump to the floor. I've been picking her up by myself for about 3 years. I think I'm about done with doing that. I've been looking at electric lift chairs that go all the way to the floor then up to a seated/bed height. It looks like some have better wheels than others. It's not clear to me if they could be used as a transport chair in the raised position, some don't appear to have any wheels at all.
There's several to choose from under $500. Do you have any recommendations on features or brands to look for or stay away from?
911 in my area is starting to charge $500 for a lift call, so I want to save that option for actual emergencies like broken bones or excessive bleeding.
Thanks
