Assistance for Patient Transfers, Standing and Rehabilitation
Typically used for transfers to a bed, chair or toilet, stand-assist lifts encourage patients to participate and engage their muscles. During rehab, stand-assist lifts are sometimes used to help patients stand or practice bearing weight. Stand-assist lifts are designed for patients who meet the following criteria:
Are partially dependent
Have some weight-bearing ability
Are cooperative
Can sit up on the edge of the bed with or without assistance
Are able to bend their hips, knees and ankles
Safety
Emergency release enables smooth lowering in cases when the battery dies unexpectedly. Simply turn the emergency-release handle or insert a pin in the back.
Convenience
Control panel displays the battery charge level, so you always know when it’s time for a change.
Removable foot platform for gait training
Remote control opens and closes the base legs with ease
Removable battery pack reduces downtime with off-board charging
Dependability
We stand behind all our durable lifts with long warranties: three years on all mechanical and electrical parts, one year on the internal battery.
Modular design makes replacing parts easy, with no special tools needed, for minimal maintenance
Ask your Medline Representative about our optional service plans
