Description
Article 8091 is the cover SystemRoMedic makes for the FootStool 8090, the raised foot support used to lift a user's knees for a seated transfer.
Who is the FootStoolCover for?
- Anyone using a FootStool 8090 to raise a user's knees for a safer seated transfer.
- Carers who move the stool between a chair, a wheelchair and a toilet.
- Homes and clinics that need the surface wiped and disinfected between users.
- Not the shorter stool: the 50 mm FootStool 8095 takes cover 8096 instead.
Will it fit your FootStool?
- It is cut for the 100 mm FootStool, article 8090, and measures 12.6 x 15 x 3.9 in (320 x 380 x 100 mm).
- Fit it with the handle on the outside, as the maker's instructions ask.
- The edge indentations stay clear, so the carer can still stand close and a toilet chair still fits the rear recess.
- Check the number on your stool: 8090 takes 8091, 8095 takes 8096.
How do you clean and care for the cover?
- Wipe with warm water or a soap solution; disinfect with 70% ethanol or 45% isopropanol if needed.
- Do not use a rinsing agent, and avoid tumble-drying.
- Inspect it after each wash and discard it if the fabric is worn or faded.
- It is a cover only: it adds no height and does not change how the stool supports the user.
What else suits a seated transfer?
The FootStool sits with the manual transfer aids under patient lifts, and it is often used at the toilet with the grab rails and raised seats in bathroom safety. It also works with the ReTurn platforms under sit-to-stand lifts. Send us the number on your stool and we will match the cover: contact us.
Frequently asked questions
Does 8091 fit the 5 cm FootStool?
No. Article 8091 fits the 100 mm FootStool 8090 only; the 50 mm FootStool 8095 takes article 8096.
How do I clean the cover?
The maker's care instructions give a wipe or wash with warm water or a soap solution, no rinsing agent and no tumble-drying, and a check of the fabric after washing.
Can I leave the cover on during a transfer?
Yes. Fit it with the handle outside and leave it on the stool. It does not change the height or the support the stool gives.
