Abstract: A device for transporting a patient in a standing/leaning position comprises a front frame extending upwardly from a wheeled base and a rear frame also extending upwardly. The rear frame has horizontal portions which are pivotally connected to the top of the front frame and the rear frame is further provided with a pair of under arm lifting bars. The front frame is further provided with a foot support at the bottom thereof and a knee support at substantially the midpoint thereof such that when the patient in the seated position places his feet on the foot support and knee support the rear frame can be pivoted forwardly so that the under arms of the patient are engaged by the lifting bars and the patient is lifted into a standing/leaning position by rearward pivoting of the rear frame. A modification of the device comprises a fixed rear frame with lifting arms extending forwardly therefrom and attached to the top of the front frame.
