Greetings!

Lifts are necessary to improve patient mobility and injury reduction, both for caregivers and clients.
While ceiling tracks can't solve every situation (such as someone falling in an area without tracking), they are an ideal solution when space is limited.

While the attached reference sheets and features provide a quick summary - please come out to our lift inservices starting next week for a quick lunch and a refresher on lifts and slings.

We look forward to providing you with useful information throughout the year. Please contact us at any time if you have any comments, questions or topics you want covered by an inservice by emailing kim.mackie@selfcarehome.com.

Reference Sheet - Patient Lifts

rose 140Invacare has added 2 new lifts in the past year, the ROZE and the JASMINE. Both are excellent for the home environment, but really shine as institutional options with adjustable features for multiple users. Key benefits are: ROZE - Standing lift, footplate can be removed, very adjustable knee pad.  JASMINE: Power operated base, very low 16.4 inches to lift residents who have fallen to the floor.
