The HugN-Go is a versatile 3-in-1 mobility device designed for use in the home and in a clinical setting. Its small turn radius, sleek design, and rechargeable battery-powered lift make it easy for one caregiver to safely operate during all three functions. The comfortable, padded buckle system makes it quick and easy to support and lift the user for the three functions. The hand-held control of the powerful actuator enables a caregiver to lift a user for transfers or into standing with little effort, decreasing burden on caregivers. The adjustable chest and hip pads “hug” the user to provide trunk support, while the adjustable armrests and hand grips can be positioned for individual users. Seated transfers can be performed to assist in moving users for commode transfers or bed-to-chair transfers. Users can be lifted into an upright standing position from a bed, commode, or chair. The user can then be supported in standing to safely perform exercises, balance, and other functional activities. Supported ambulation can be performed safely with support easily varied through the touch of a button. The base design provides stability without obstructing normal gait mechanics. Steering casters can be locked to keep the HugN-Go moving in a straight line when indicated and unlocked for turning with a tight turning radius.
HugN-Go 350
Our largest HugN-Go device is designed to support and lift users up to 350 pounds and 6’6” tall. This device has a larger base for more stability for larger users and can still be navigated through smaller spaces. The base is adjustable, with a push of a button on the handset, the legs get wider or narrower with a motor. The selection of base size should depend on the user’s needs, including width of wheelchair and width of doorways to negotiate. Contact a product specialist for assistance.

Sit to Stand
The HugN-Go’s remote-controlled powerful actuator lifts an individual from a seated to an upright position, whether it be from a bed, wheelchair, or mat table. Therefore removing the strain and stress placed on the caregiver! Once the individual is brought to an upright position, a caregiver can focus on range of motion and various pre-gait exercises and activities
Supported Ambulation
The HugN-Go’s adjustable chest and hip pads, armrests, and hand grips can be positioned to fit individuals of different sizes. The amount of support provided during ambulation can be increased or decreased using a remote control. The HugN-Go’s casters can be “locked” directionally to keep an individual safely ambulating in a straight line forward or backward. If an individual is able to be challenged more, the casters can be “unlocked” to also allow for practicing turning and side-stepping.
