Method Of Use
This stand up hoist is designed to assist with the standing transfer of a person from one seated position to another seated position. The person needs to have the ability to weight bear.
The use of the sling (placed around the hips and lower back), weight bearing footplate and a cushioned, contoured knee pad provide the three points of support. The person needs to be able to lean back into the sling for it to be effective.
This style of hoist is useful for toileting and dressing tasks as it provides full access for attending to lower garments.
