make it simpull
Patients in Skilled Nursing Facilities are moved laterally from bed to bed often. Whether for imaging and testing, hygiene purposes, therapy, emergency situations or other reasons, staff are doing patient lateral transfers, boosting and supine to sitting adjustments continually throughout the day.
The SimPull device makes it all possible with zero lift and zero force for your patient care team, and can help your facility with its goal of improving patient safety in long term care facilities.
46% of nursing injury cases were from overexertion according the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
