Easy to Store
Whether you’re looking for a wheelchair, handrail or chair scale, Rice Lake’s Healthweigh scales are easy to store and maintain.
Chair scales fit in smaller spaces and are ideal for accurately weighing patients who can easily move from a bed or wheelchair. Rice Lake’s chair scales also have wheels for easy portability with locks to make sure the scale stays in place during a weighment or while it is not in use.
Rice Lake also offers a dual-ramp handrail scale with a seat that can be easily folded away for portability and storability. Handrail and wheelchair scale platforms also fold up so they can be easily transported on integrated wheels.
Lightweight and Portable
Buildings constructed from the 1950s to 1970s were often made smaller than healthcare facilities built today. This means that having extra room for a larger or permanent scale might not be ideal, especially when renovations are required to install equipment such as an in-floor scale. Renovations for a permanent scale also require extra time and money that might not be available.
In some cases, older healthcare facilities may already have a permanent in-floor scale installed, but it may be in an inconvenient place that is far from patient rooms. A portable and stowable scale ensures that you get the best use out of the space you already have.
