ABSTRACT:
A device for helping a handicapped person move up and down a flight of stairs. The device includes a base having a pair of vertically spaced platforms which define intermediate steps between the steps of the stairs. By stepping from a lower step to the platforms and then to the adjacent upper step, a person may climb the stairs while lifting his feet vertically through only relatively short distances. A handle extends upwardly from the base and helps stabilize the person using the device. The handle also is used to move the device from step to step.
