In a hospital setting, patient safety is influenced not only by advanced medical equipment but also by small, well-designed support accessories. One such essential item is the Single Footstep P/C with SS Top. Though compact in size, this hospital footstep plays a vital role in helping patients move safely and confidently during routine care, examinations, and transfers.
From OPDs and general wards to examination and procedure rooms, a sturdy medical footstep reduces the risk of slips, falls, and strain, especially for elderly patients, post-operative cases, and individuals with limited mobility.
Strong Construction for Daily Hospital Use
This single footstep for hospitals is manufactured using 1-inch round and 1-inch square CRCA MS tubes, giving it the strength needed to withstand continuous daily use in high-traffic healthcare environments. The solid frame ensures stability when patients step up or down, providing both patients and caregivers with peace of mind.
With a compact size of 16" L × 12" W × 7" H, the footstep fits easily beside hospital beds and examination couches without obstructing movement or floor space. Its practical height makes it suitable for a wide range of patients and clinical applications.
Stainless Steel Top for Hygiene and Easy Maintenance
Hygiene is a top priority in hospitals. The step platform is fitted with a stainless-steel sheet top, which is resistant to corrosion and easy to clean with standard hospital disinfectants. This hygienic surface helps maintain infection control standards and ensures safe repeated use across multiple patients.
The SS top also adds durability, making the footstep a long-lasting investment for hospitals and clinics.
Improving Patient Comfort, Confidence, and Independence
For many patients, getting onto a hospital bed or examination table can be uncomfortable or intimidating. This hospital footstep provides stable support that helps patients move with greater confidence and less physical strain. By reducing dependence on caregivers for basic movement, it also supports smoother workflows for nursing staff.
This makes the footstep especially useful in:
General and specialty wards
OPDs and consultation rooms
Examination and procedure areas
Clinics and nursing homes
