Hybrid mobility and transfer assistance device

A hybrid mobility and transfer device comprising:

• a frame comprising a horizontal bottom front bar connected to two opposing side bars, wherein each side bar further includes a vertical bar opposite to the front bar, the vertical bars defining an interior space of the device;
• a support structure connected to the frame, the support structure comprising a first support bar connected at a first end to a front of the frame and at a second end to a first base supported by a first vertical bar and an opposing second support bar connected at a first end to a front of the frame and at a second end to a second base supported by a second vertical bar, the second support bar positioned parallel to and spaced apart from the first support bar;
• a vertical backrest attached to each of the first support bar and the second support bar, the vertical backrest spanning between the first support bar and the second support bar;
• and,
• a seating element having a first cantilevered section and a second cantilevered section, each section connected along an opposing edge to the first base and the second base, respectively, the seating element providing unobstructed access beneath the seating element to the interior space when the first cantilevered section and second cantilevered section are in a horizontal seating position.
