Some clients need to be lifted from a seated position with the hips and knees supported, and some need weighing without a second transfer. This version of the lifter answers both: the powered pivot frame takes a pivot sling and drives the client’s position through the lift, and the integrated scale reads the client’s weight while they hang.
Pivot transfers suit clients with high tone or contractures, and clients who fatigue quickly in a hammock style lift. The carer sets the frame, attaches the sling clips and the powered movement does the work of bringing the client upright or laying them back.
Built in weighing is useful for anyone on a medication or nutrition plan that tracks weight, because the reading happens during a transfer the client was having anyway.
