Rice Lake Introduces ADA-compliant Healthweigh® Scale
Rice Lake, Wis.—In Rice Lake Weighing Systems’ continued efforts to provide safe, inclusive scales, we’ve designed the Healthweigh 350-ADA-1. The 350-ADA-1 wheelchair scale meets the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards and is built for patients of all mobility levels.
The ADA regulates medical diagnostic equipment to ensure safety and comfort for disabled patients in healthcare facilities. This includes regulating wheelchair-accessible scales. For a scale to be ADA compliant, it must have a certain platform width, depth, slope and edge protection on the ramps and platform.
By August 9, 2026, every public healthcare facility must have at least one ADA-compliant scale, or 10% of all diagnostic equipment must meet ADA requirements.
The 350-ADA-1 exceeds ADA standards, allowing all patients to be weighed safely and stay balanced with ramps and a handrail. Its compact and foldable design makes it easy to store and keeps spaces open. With integrated wheels, it can be moved to different rooms to weigh patients where it’s most convenient for them. To provide the best patient care, the 350-ADA-1 features:
- 40-inch weighing platform
- 1:8 gentle ramp slope
- 35-inch handrail
- 2-inch edge protection
The 350-ADA-1 is Platinum certified by Corada and meets applicable ADA Standards when installed, maintained and operated correctly. It’s the only certification that reliably ensures ADA compliance, proving the 350-ADA-1 delivers inclusive patient care.
