Our story

Jørgen Skielboe
Founder

Stand Aid Nordic helps citizens move with dignity. From personal experience we know how hampering it is to not be able to stand up and sit down. Original founder and patent seeker, Jørgen Sloth, got the idea for Stand Aid Nordic’s unique innovation after a hip replacement. Calling for his wife after a visit to the toilet was simply too undignified an experience. He first invented a system of pulleys and ropes, but quickly realised that such a system could not move with him out of the house. Jørgen dreamt of another solution, Jørgen dreamt of Stand Aid Nordic. 

Today we, Stand Aid Nordic, exist to realise Jørgen’s dream for as many people as possible. Stand Aid Nordic is here to help you move with dignity, no matter who or where you are.
