Used for support when being guided from the Mangar lifting cushions to other apparatus such as a wheelchair or stretcher.
This is good for patients who have mobility, but they may need a little bit of extra support. They can still walk but it just helps the carer to have a better grip on the patient to slowly guide them through their movements.
The belt is adjusted and buckled around the patient’s waist, enabling the carer to reach the handles, and with comfortable padding and material that grips to patients clothing it is comfortable for them and does not slip.
Yes. This lift with the Mangar Elk is performed in conjunction with a scoop or transfer board. Our Camel and Eagle lifting cushions can lift someone from a lying or sitting position.
We recommend servicing your lifting cushion every 12 months.
