A Half Step Stool, also known as a half-height step, is an assistive device designed to make stepping up or down easier, particularly for individuals with mobility limitations or difficulty navigating steps. It provides a smaller and less challenging elevation compared to a full step, making it more accessible for those with reduced strength, balance issues, or joint problems. The Half Step Stool typically features a sturdy platform with a non-slip surface and may have rubberized feet for added stability. It is typically designed to be placed next to existing steps or thresholds, effectively reducing the height by half, hence the name "half step." By using a Half Step Stool, individuals can navigate steps or raised surfaces with greater ease and reduced risk of tripping or falling.

1. Choose a stable location.
2. Confirm the stool's stability.
3. Position the stool facing the area you need to reach.
4. Maintain three points of contact while climbing.
5. Grip the handrail if available.
6. Step onto the stool and ascend one step at a time.
7. Complete your task with care.
8. Descend slowly and steadily.
9. Store the step stool safely after use.
