Passive Floor Lifts 2 for patient, Hanging Fork

(1) MINSTREL

A versatile resident lift for small care facilities.

Key points

* Proven battery-powered lifting technology controlled by a handset provides high standards of safety and comfort for both resident and carer.

* The resident is comfortable and well supported throughout transfer procedures in the head and body support sling.

* The chassis can be opened to provide better access around large chairs.

System integration

The Minstrel concept also includes the appropriate sling for resident and purpose. Sling solutions are available in a wide range of special purpose designs and sizes.

Making tasks easier and safer

This easy to use aid enables a carer to handle everyday lifting and transfers comfortable, safely and without stress. And in the event of a resident falling, Minstrel allows lifts from the floor by a single carer without having to sit the resident up.

Improving care and efficiency

As a general purpose lift, Minstrel is a good asset for small care facilities. Its user-friendliness and versatility encourage frequent and cost-effective utilisation.

(2) TENOR

Increased comfort for the larger resident Lifting heavier people has become a much bigger issue in our hospitals and care facilities today. The Tenor is a mobile lift which has been specifically designed to manage these types of residents. The lightweight aluminum structure provides a safe working load of 320kg (704 lbs).

Extra room for the larger resident has been built in to the design of the Tenor. The widely spaced shoulder attachment points on the spreader bar together with the extended boom length ensure that residents can be transferred in comfort and even repositioned through 360º if required for access to bed or chair.

Key features:

* The Tenor has been designed in cooperation with residents and carers to meet the specific safety and comfort needs of bariatric care.

* Lifting strength that residents and carers can trust. The lightweight aluminium structure provides a safe working load of 320 kg (704 lbs). Every Tenor is tested before shipment to lift weights over and above its safe working load.

* The new bariatric sling range provides optimum support for different bariatric body shapes. Slings are attached to a new four-point spreader bar designed specifically to enhance comfort for bariatric residents.

Making tasks easier and safer

Carers and nurses should be able to work safely and ergonomically using mechanical aids and working methods optimised for bariatric care. Carers will recognise many aspects of the Tenor from working with other mobile lifts – easy to apply slings, simple handset control and ergonomically sound procedures. All types of bariatric sling are colour-coded to make size selection as easy as possible.

Improving efficiency

The Tenor is a highly efficient solution for transferring and positioning bariatric residents. The combination of the new four-point spreader bar’s widely spaced shoulder attachment points and the extended boom length ensures that residents can be transferred in comfort and repositioned, if required, through 360º for access to bed, chair or wheelchair. One major advantage of the Tenor system is its mobility – it can provide good coverage in bariatric care, as it can be easily moved to wherever it is needed.
