Patient Safety in Long Term Care Facilities & Acute Care
Fully Automated Patient Transfer to Improve Patient Safety in Long Term Care Facilities
make it simpull
Long-term acute care patients frequently require lateral transfers from bed to bed for various purposes, including repositioning, therapy sessions, meals, or socialization. Throughout the day, staff regularly assist with lateral transfers, patient boosting, and transitions from a supine to sitting position, ensuring the comfort, safety, and mobility of immobile or limited-mobility patients.
The SimPull device makes it all possible with zero lift and zero force for your patient care team.
46% of nursing injury cases were from overexertion according the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
Proactively reduce the chance of long term acute care staff injury
Even proper lifting techniques don’t prevent all injuries, and manual lifting, pushing and pulling can lead to repetitive motion injuries. The SimPull is fully automated and does all the heavy lifting.
