1. focus on exercises for your upper body that will burn calories. your local gym may have some options. ask them to help you with options before joining. lots of places have machines that are compatible for people in wheelchairs especially if you live in a big city.
2. lower your calorie intake by preparing foods that contain less calories (i.e. light mayo, lots of veggies, etc)
3. google exercises for people in wheelchairs if you can't afford a gym membership OR hire a personal trainer to come to your home and set you up with a program. it's a little cheaper than paying membership fees.
*Decreases stress and strain on back, knees, hips and joints.*Installs Quickly.*Slip resistant and non-marking.*Low profile look makes Stand Easy almost invisible.*Does not interfere with rocking or reclining of chair. How it works:When a person stands from the typical recliner, it tilts forward, dropping the arms and seat of an already low chair by 3-4 inches. Simply raising the chair by 5 or 6 inches, necessary for independent standing, makes it dangerously unstable.Stand Easy has developed a safe and easy solution! When Stand Easy is installed, it raises a chair 1 3/4 inches and limits the forward tilt allowing an additional 3-4 inches of lift. The 4-6 total inches of extra support gives a weakened person a biomechanical advantage and enables them to stand on their own.The Stand Easy Chair Lift attaches quickly and easily to the wooden base of your favorite recliner. Our patent pending design raises your effective seat height 4-6 inches while only raising your chair 1 3/4 inches. Each box contains four Stand Easy Chair Lift Risers, two Stand Easy Chair Lift Rocker Limiters, 16 screws, Velcro, and instruction manual.

How not to exit a lift chair, Lesson 1
Can anyone explain this psychological mind trick?
Hi.
When I was younger, my Cousins and I use to have this strange sort of trick. What would happen is that we would sit one of us down on a chair. Then four of us would put both our hands together and stick out our pinky fingers. Would put the pinky fingers under the person's arm pit and knees and try to lift them up. However the person wouldn't budge.
After that, systematically we'd each put a hand above the persons head, then our next hand. Then we'd take it off, one by one in the same order.
We would attempt to lift the person again, and to our surprise it was extremely easy.
Can anyone explain how this works for me?
Sine your father seems to be mild mannered (for now) you should start out at about two grand a week if they do not live with you and about 1 a week if they do. you should also build up the amount as the nanny would have to preform more tasks and deal with a more fragile, temperamental patient.
My grandmother was a nurse for 30 years who then decided to do home health and she got 4 grand a week but the lady she cared for was temperamental and delusional.
I don't have any first hand experience myself. I hope this helped.
