You can also check online at Sam's club, I saw that they have them for a few hundred dollars.
Have you checked with her insurance company to find out if they will help pay if the doctor orders her to use assisted standing equipment? Well worth asking.
I don’t think there’s much financial aid out there for lift chairs. All I could get for my moms chair was a tax exemption. It probably varies from state to state.
I would advise against these chairs unless you’re quite sure the elder is competent enough to use it. My mom was able to use it effectively for a couple of months then she’d forget to use her buttons and struggle to get up, often falling in the process. If your mom is having any memory problems it may be a waste of time and money.
And they are not cheep. Pretty basic ones are around $800. I had one for both mom and dad. They got very little use.
