Exercise Equipment for Bedridden Prevention

Thai Red Cross Rehabilitation Center provides comprehensive, specialized care for patients who have lost their mobility, led by a dedicated team of rehabilitation physicians and physical therapists. Each year, the center serves an average of 10,000 to 12,000 inpatients and outpatients requiring physical rehabilitation. The majority are elderly individuals recovering from strokes, as well as bone and joint injuries. With a high daily volume of patients undergoing physical and occupational therapy, current equipment is no longer sufficient to meet everyone's needs effectively.

In 2026, the center is launching a project to acquire pneumatic (air-resistance) exercise equipment designed to minimize joint impact and ensure safety for the elderly. This specialized machinery focuses on training "walking and balance," featuring a digital Barthel Index assessment system that allows medical teams and families to track each patient's progress clearly.

With a fundraising goal of 2,000,000 THB, this initiative will empower 500 to 800 patients each year to regain their independence in daily life and reduce hospital readmissions.

Thai Red Cross Society invites you to donate toward purchasing this pneumatic exercise equipment, helping elderly and recovering patients step forward and walk independently once again.
