Today, with improvements in technology and changes in the way healthcare is
delivered, Hill-Rom is designing products to continuously meet the changing
needs of the healthcare industry.
The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist consists of a column stand
assembly mounted on a castered base assembly. The spreader pedal widens the
base frame to allow the resident access from a chair. The lift arm and
adjustable stand assist sling are attached to the stand column subassembly. A
battery pack powered actuator raises and lowers the lift arm and sling. The
knee and foot supports are located below the lift arm. These provide additional
support when standing and foot placement during resident transferring. A
rechargeable battery pack supplies power for the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident
Stand Assist. The battery pack stores enough power for approximately 40
assists. It is recharged by the wall mounted battery pack charger that plugs into
a standard 110/120V AC power source.
The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist has been designed to be mobile but
stable. The sturdy, steel frame with locking set brakes on the casters allows for
easy positioning, locking, assisting, and moving. The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist is highly mobile and independent of an AC electrical
source because it uses a rechargeable battery pack. The handset cord allows the
caregiver the freedom to move around and operate the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist remotely while interacting with the resident. The
TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist will enhance caregiver productivity and
quality of care for the less mobile and more dependent resident.
The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist can be used for several purposes,
including using the stand to assist in walking. It can be used with or without the
stand assist sling and is designed to increase the mobility of the user. The
TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist is capable of assisting a resident of up
to 400 lb (181 kg) who is seated or resting on a surface as high as 40" (102 cm)
off the floor.
The TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist has been designed for the comfort
and safety of the resident. Thick, slip resistant sling padding reduces the
potential of sling slippage while supporting the resident. The lift arm and
column stand are designed so that the resident does not come in contact with
the actuator or the column stand during operation. The actuator has an
emergency down release that slowly lowers the lift arm and the resident should
battery power be lost. An emergency stop button, located on the control box,
will shut down power to the TRANS•LIFT
TM
Resident Stand Assist in case of
an emergency.
