An assisting device provide with: a movable base on which a care receiver rides; a raising and lowering member supported on the base to be movable in an up-down direction; a raising and lowering drive section configured to drive the raising and lowering member up and down; an oscillating member supported on the raising and lowering member to be capable of oscillating; an oscillating drive section configured to drive the oscillating of the oscillating member; a holding member supported on the oscillating member to be freely tiltable, and configured to hold an upper body of the care receiver; a first handle provided on the oscillating member; and a second handle provided on the holding member, and configured to tilt together with the holding member. Accordingly, practicality is improved with regard to safe moving operation of the assisting device and safe free tilting of the holding member.
