The Patient Handler is a patient handling device used by healthcare professionals when moving a patient with limited upper body strength. The Patient Handler is designed to extend the reach of health professionals while providing extra upper body support to the patient during an assisted transfer. This versatile transfer device can be used in various applications including sliding a patient in bed, transferring a patient between beds, chairs and commodes, positioning a patient in a chair or assisting a weight-bearing patient in standing up. The Patient Handler is intended for use on patients who can partially support themselves and allows health professionals to maintain close contact during the move. Can be combined with other transfer aids, such as transfer boards, for optimal results. The Patient Handler is made of strong, flexible polyurethane with a matte finish that enhances the health professional’s grip on both the sling and the patient. Dual handles on each side allow the device to be used by a single trained professional or between trained professionals. Easy-to-clean with a disinfectant wipe. IMPORTANT: The Patient Handler should be used in accordance with approved patient handling techniques. Product measures 21.5” x 8.25” x .2” (54.6 cm x 21 cm x .5 cm).
