The Acorn Stairlift FAQ of the Week

What are stairlifts used for?

Stairlifts are life-changing devices that allow you to reach another level, both in your home and quality of life.

They are primarily used by people who struggle with or are unable to safely step up and down the stairs.

Stairlifts can be used by people of any age, and all Acorn stairlifts have been designed to ease difficulties encountered in a wide variety of disabilities.

Stepping on Stairlift Stereotypes—Why Stairlifts Are Not Just for Seniors

When we think about stairlifts, the first thing that comes to mind is often an elderly person. While there is no doubt that stairlifts are a safe solution for seniors who struggle with stairs, the necessity of a stairlift is not just limited to seniors.

From cancer patients that struggle to stand after exhausting chemotherapy, let alone climb stairs, to people suffering from debilitating back pain, stairlifts are helpful to a much larger demographic of people than most may realize.

Different Conditions That Can Benefit from Stairlifts

Other examples of people who may benefit from a stairlift include:

  • People with disabilities
  • People suffering from chronic pain
  • Patients Recovering from an Injury or Surgery
  • Arthritis patients
  • People with back pain
  • People with Parkinson’s
  • Cancer patients
  • People with heart conditions
  • Paraplegics
