Lifting The Patient - Invacare Roze Manuel D'utilisation

5.3 Lifting the Patient

WARNING!
– DO NOT exceed the maximum weight limitation
(SWL) of 200 kg (31 stone). Maximum patient weight
is 200 kg (31 stone).
– Individuals that use the stand assist sling MUST be
able to support the majority of their own weight,
otherwise injury may occur.
– DO NOT lock the rear casters of the stand assist lift
when lifting an individual. Locking the rear casters
could cause the stand assist lift to tip and endanger
the patient and assistants. Unlocking the rear casters
during lifting procedures allows the lift to stabilize itself
while the patient is initially lifted from a wheelchair,
bed of any stationary object.
– DO NOT move the patient if the sling is not properly
attached to the attachment points on the stand assist
lift.
– Make sure that the sling is properly attached BEFORE
lifting the patient. If any attachments are not properly
in place, correct the problem. When the sling is
elevated a few inches/cm off the stationary surface
and before moving the patient, check again to make
sure the sling and all attachments are securely in
place. If any problem is found, lower the patient back
onto the stationary surface and correct the problem -
otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
– Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made
before moving the patient.
