A chair equipped with a pendant controller to help a person rise from a setting position to a standing position with the assistance of arm rests for stability. The chair allows the rear of the seat to be lifted by an electric lifting device mounted directly under the rear of the seat. The front of the seat is hinged to the front frame of the chair allowing the rear of the seat to be moved up to allow the user to reach a height that allows them to exit the chair. The arm rest allows the person to maintain stability during the process.
