Safe Patient Handling in Observation Environments
Fully Automated Patient Lateral Transfer, Supine to Sitting & Boosting for Observation Settings
make it simpull
Patient transfers are a common and important part of care in an observation unit, where patients require close monitoring after procedures, treatments, or acute medical events. Transfers may be needed to move patients between beds, transfer from supine to sitting, or boost patients while maintaining comfort and safety. Reliable transfer techniques are especially important to prevent injury and ensure patients remain stable during their observation period.
The SimPull enables zero-lift, zero-force patient transfers, allowing healthcare providers to make these essential movements safely and efficiently. It reduces the risk of strain or injury for the care team while providing patients with a comfortable and dignified experience during their observation stay.
46% of nursing injury cases were from overexertion according the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
Proactively reduce the chance of observation staff injury
Even proper lifting techniques don’t prevent all injuries, and manual lifting, pushing and pulling can lead to repetitive motion injuries. The SimPull is fully automated and does all the heavy lifting.
