SECTION 5—TRANSFERRING THE PATIENT
Roze™ Stand Up Patient Lift 18 Part No. 1150703
SECTION 5—TRANSFERRING THE PATIENT
ƽ WARNING
DO NOT attempt any transfer of a patient without the approval of the patient’s physician, nurse
or medical assistant.
DO NOT move the patient if the sling is not properly connected to the attachment points of the
stand up lift. Check that the sling is properly connected to the attachment points prior to lifting a
patient. If any attachments are not properly in place, correct the problem. When the sling is elevated
a few inches off the stationary surface and before moving the patient, check again to make sure that all
sling attachments are secure. If any attachments are not properly in place, lower the patient back onto
the stationary surface and correct this problem - otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made before moving the patient. The patient's
arms should be outside the straps.
DO NOT use slings and stand up lifts of different manufacturers. Invacare slings are made
specifically for use with Invacare stand up lifts. Otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
DO NOT lock the rear casters of the stand up lift when lifting an individual. Locking the rear
casters could cause the stand up lift to tip and endanger the patient and assistants.
The legs of the stand up lift MUST be in the maximum open position for optimum stability and
safety. If the patient is in a sling and it becomes necessary to move through a narrow passage,
close the legs of the stand up lift only as long as it takes to move through the passage. When the
stand up lift is through the passage, return the legs to the maximum open position. If it is
necessary to close the legs to maneuver the stand up lift under a bed, close the legs only as long
as it takes to position the stand up lift over the patient and lift the patient off the surface of the
bed. When the legs of the stand up lift are no longer under the bed, return the legs to the
maximum open position.
Be sure to check the sling attachments each time the sling is removed and replaced to ensure that it
is properly attached before the patient is removed from a surface.
The use of one assistant is based on the evaluation of the health care professional for each individual case.
