The first compact, portable, and most importantly, affordable, fall-recovery and transfer lift platform that can be used and stored almost anywhere.
Two of the most common problems suffered by mobility-limited individuals (such as those bound to a wheelchair, the elderly, or the obese) are recovering from a fall to the floor/ground, and transferring between seating surfaces of varying heights. The solutions to both of these problems currently rely on either the help from other people to physically lift them, or the use of “crane” or “track” style lifting systems that are exceedingly expensive and unaffordable to most, large and cumbersome, and comparatively immobile as they are mounted systems meant for hospitals, nursing homes, or more “industrial” types of use.

Operations and Options:
Our lift can be connected to one or more additional lifts, physically with a locking “Connector Bridge” (various sizes from 2” to 30”) to fill the gap between the machines. Then the control boxes are connected via a cable included with this accessory kit, so all connected machines run from a single controller in a Master/Slave(s) configuration. Other accessories include a backrest with provisions for a lap or gait belt, a handle to brace against when transferring, and a locking slide board (one is included with the machine, but can also be purchased separately if someone wants more than one).
