Car Extractor Lifts
The Medcare Car Extractor Lift was created to safely lift and move patients into and out of nearly any vehicle, from a compact automobile to a fire/emergency van. Built light and strong, with a 30" reach and a 40" lifting range, the Medcare Car Extractor can gain deep access into tight vehicle interior spaces and lift large patients with limited mobility. Like all other Medcare patient lifts, the patient car extractor is engineered and built according to rigid quality standards. Our patient lifts provide your staff and patients with easy, safe transfer capabilities that eliminate the potential of transfer related injuries.
EasySlide
The EasySlide family are small yet highly practical sliding mats that encourage movement and boost activity by the user. Caregivers love EasySlide because it decreases the number of assisted repositioning transfers and eliminates unnecessary lifting, which spares their back and shoulders. EasySlide is available in several models, materials and sizes to suit different transfer situations and patient needs
- Used for supine transfers including to and from beds, x-ray or operating tables, shower trolleys and stretchers as well as for turning users in bed and on x-ray or operating tables
- Soft, padded outside provides for comfortable and gentle transfers
- Proprietary Ultra Low Friction (ULF) sliding material reduces the friction under the patient
- Available with protective and disposable covers for improved hygiene and less laundry
- Replaceable protective cover containing carbon fiber reduces static electricity
FlexiGrip
FlexiGrip is a very convenient solution for users who have physical difficulties getting out of bed. Step by step they can gradually pull themselves up from a lying to a sitting position. The action involved also strengthens the stomach and arm muscles of the user.
FlexiGrip can also be used to assist during seated transfers from wheelchairs to beds.
FlexiGrip is made from a soft, soiling resistant material and can lie in bed without being in the way. The device features a loop which makes it very easy to attach to the bed footboard or around a handrail.
ReadyMove
With ReadyMove, a caregiver can give a user safe and secure transfer and mobility support using only minimal effort and without unnecessary lifting.
By placing ReadyMove behind the user's back or shoulders, the caregiver can support and help the user to rise or to lie down. With ReadyMove under the user's seat, the caregiver can help the user to turn or move higher up in bed or further back in a chair.
ReadyMove is also an ideal assistive device for transfers between, for example, bed and wheelchair. In these transfer situations, ReadyMove can, to advantage, be used in combination with a sliding board.
Two ergonomically designed handles, one short and one long, on each side, enable a sturdy grip and allow the caregiver to choose the grip that enables the best working stance.
The inside is made of a dirt-resistant, moisture-resistant nylon fabric that does not slide against the body and that is easy to clean.
ReTurn7500i
ReTurn7500i is an easy-to-use and incredibly effective assistive device providing convenient and natural support for sit-to-stand and transfer, but it is also a rehabilitation device. ReTurn7500i enables safe and active sit-to-stand and transfer to or from bed, wheelchair or toilet. ReTurn7500i can also be used to facilitate repositioning farther back in a chair or wheelchair.
