Lifting the Resident

Ensure the following:

• The resident's knees are secure against the knee pad.

• The resident's feet are properly positioned on the footplate (Figure A).

• Slings:

- Padded standing sling: bottom edge of the standing sling is positioned on the resident's lower back.

- Transfer sling: bottom edge of the transfer sling is at the base of the resident's spine.

- Either style sling: resident's arms are outside the sling.

• Rear casters are UNLOCKED

• Sit-to-stand legs are in the maximum open position.

• Instruct resident to hold onto the hand grips on both sides of the sit-to-stand lift and to lean back

into the standing or transfer sling (Figure B).

WARNING: If transferring a resident from a wheelchair, wheel locks MUST be in the locked

position before lowering the resident into the wheelchair. Otherwise, injury may occur.

WARNING: If transferring from a wheelchair, lock the wheel locks on the wheelchair.

Press the UP arrow on the hand control to raise the resident above the surface (bed, wheelchair

or commode).

Moving the Resident

WARNING: DO NOT lock the rear casters of the resident lift when lifting an individual. Locking the

rear casters could cause the resident lift to tip and endanger the resident and assistants.

WARNING: The legs of the sit-to-stand lift MUST be in the maximum open position for optimum

stability. If the resident is in a sling and it becomes necessary to move through a narrow passage,

close the legs of the sit-to-stand lift only as long as it takes to move through the passage. When the

sit-to-stand lift is through the passage, return the legs to the maximum open position.

WARNING: During transfer of a resident suspended in the lift sling, DO NOT roll caster base over

uneven surfaces that would create an imbalance of the lift. This could cause the lift to tip over. Use

the mast handle at all times to push or pull the lift.

a) Ensure the legs of the sit-to-stand lift are in the maximum open position. If not, use the

spreader bar handle to open the legs.

b) Move the sit-to-stand lift away from the surface the resident was lifted from.

c) Slowly move the resident to the desired surface.
