In addition to bariatric wheelchairs and beds, Sizewise manufactures lifts, floor pads and commode chairs, and the company provides training and protocols for safe patient handling. At one point, the company moved some of its production to an overseas plant, but it closed the plant after finding that it couldn’t guarantee the quality of the products made there.

It was the first company in the industry to offer rentals of bariatric medical equipment.Īll of Sizewise’s production takes place in the United States. It also serves as the original equipment manufacturer for companies selling related products. As a Medical Equipment Technician, I service and repair specialized bariatric equipment such as hospital beds, regular, percussion, Mighty Air, Big Turn, Pulsate, and Rotate air mattresses. The company offers its equipment for rental, for capital purchase and on a lease-to-own basis. Sizewise’s main revenue sources are acute care needs, long-term care, home care and consumer bedding. Most of the people who were employed by Sizewise in its early years still work for the company. As CEO, Fricky’s leadership style fosters an entrepreneurial environment and a family-oriented culture that has enabled the company to retain its top talent. Sizewise, which provides bariatric wheelchairs and related medical equipment, has grown from humble beginnings in a one-car garage into a national company that employs 850. Both incidents showed Frickey there was an unserved need for greater mobility. In this same time period, he had to deliver groceries to an obese customer who was unable to shop for his own food. An accident left Frickey temporarily unable to walk the floors of his grocery business. The concept for Willard “Lee” Frickey’s company, Sizewise, began to germinate in the 1980s.
