Patient Handling

As the number of obese individuals increases, so does their presence in healthcare settings, whether at home or in a care facility, which can have negative consequences on workers tasked with assisting in their care.

A growing number of nursing homes and healthcare facilities have begun shifting to zero-lift programs. Administrators at these facilities recognize that manual lifting and repositioning tasks are associated with an increased risk of developing injury to caregivers, and this risk increases with the weight of the resident or patient.

Easy Medical Store offers several high-quality, economical patient handling equipment, lifts and slings that will meet your needs.
