Testimonial: A Grateful Caregiver, Dixie Jay

Dixie Jay has been providing elder client assistance for the last 10+ years. Her current client is 83 years young and was a stroke victim last fall. This stroke caused her to require more assistance from Dixie in the bathroom, mainly in getting on and off the toilet. This put both Dixie and her client at higher risk to added injuries. Dixie could have over strained herself or both client and Dixie could have had further consequences. If you are a caregiver, how many times do you face this danger? If you are a business owner, how many times does your staff and residents face these dangers?

This is how Extend A Hand benefits two people; staff and client or staff and resident. No longer should you put your staff and client in this risk area.
 

In this photo you can see Dixie smile because Extend A Hand does more to assist both her and her client, I will quote from Dixie's testimonial.

"Until we had an Extend A Hand installed, bathroom visits were scary. My client was too weak to use the toilet arms to push herself up, nor could she safely lower herself. I felt that we both now faced further danger. Extend A Hand has made this bathroom safer."

Toilet arms don't work. Time and time again our Extend A Hand replaces these so-called solution products.

Extend A Hand is closer to your reach. The end-user can pull themselves and lower themselves to a resting position. This gives renewed dignity.

Staff will have less chance of over straining. This could eliminate L&I lower back injury claims. Both client and staff are rewarded by the use of this product.

"Now that we have this Extend A Hand installed my client can lower and pull herself up, this makes my job easier on my back. My client is also happier because she can help herself and has renewed dignity."

Getting Past the Conventional Grab Bar Stigmatism

Dixie's Letter to our Company

Dear Chris,

     When you brought out the Extend A Hand, I was unsure of what it could do for my client and me. Well within the first day of use it became clear. My client and I have rewarded from your product every day. I have recommended Extend A Hand to our PT and visiting Nurse. I also plan on telling my daughter in Alaska who is opening her own assisted living facility. This product has done everything you claimed and I will continue to recommend it to anyone that is considering assistive devices. We thank you for bringing it out to us. I now see that you have a large stigmatism to over come. I must admit that I too thought, "What will Extend A Hand do that a conventional grab bar can't?" The answer is simple, MORE. We are creatures of habit, change is hard for us and so many products promise greater rewards, but because we don't like to change, we keep doing or using what we always have. Your Extend A Hand product does MORE then any conventional grab bar can. I want you to let people know this from my letter. Please use this letter to help your company help others get past the conventional grab bar stigmatism. I am sure that once people try out your product they will have the rewards that we have now become accustom to each and every day.

           A Grateful Caregiver, Dixie Jay
