LiftSeat introduces a new way to assist patients in acute care facilities with the frequent task of toileting – the LiftSeat™ 300 Professional toilet lift. Supporting patients with this repetitive, biomechanically challenging activity of daily living (ADL) requires frequent assistance from already busy nursing staff and places both nurse and patient at-risk for injury. When installed in a patient's room, in surgical suites or in the orthopaedic rehabilitation or occupational therapy departments, LiftSeat virtually eliminates the risk of injury related to this personal task while restoring independence and dignity. For ambulatory patients who require only minimal toileting assistance, LiftSeat makes it possible for them to qualify as “modified independent” for the ADL. For patients who need moderate to maximum assistance, LiftSeat enables a single nurse to assist safely and efficiently while reducing the risk of injury to all. LiftSeat can even be part of a home after-care program for patients recovering from hip, spine, knee or other procedures where mobility is temporarily compromised and the risk of re-injury is a factor. LiftSeat Acute Care Benefits LiftSeat helps acute care facilities create a safe environment for nurses and patients while restoring patient privacy and dignity. LiftSeat reduces facility costs by eliminating two-nurse toileting transfers and reducing the lost staff time and Workers' Compensation claims and premiums that result from lift-related injuries. LiftTek™ Core Assistive Technology virtually eliminates the risk of nurse and patient injuries by delivering the support required during the sit-to-stand (STS) motion path. Dedicated no-lift solution ensures technology will be used—supporting compliance with no-lift regulations and policies. LiftSeat is easy to use with built-in controls that work with the touch of a thumb and an optional handheld controller for caregivers. Installation is simple, secure and safe. The LiftSeat™ 300 Professional fits over existing toilets and works in virtually any bathroom environment without modification. For Nursing Staff Safe, Effective Resident Assistance According to the American Nurses Association, back injuries affect up to 38 percent of nurses with the repeated lifting, transferring and repositioning of patients the most common tasks that lead to injury. LiftSeat virtually eliminates the risk of toilet-related assistance injuries by delivering the support required during the sit-to-stand (STS) motion path. This support delivers safe patient assistance with fewer injuries, fewer lost or reduced work days and increased job satisfaction. For Patients Comfort, Privacy and Safety More than 15 million Americans suffer from conditions that compromise their strength and the ability to get on and off the toilet. Many of these are patients in acute care facilities dealing with a temporary loss of mobility and independence as a result of a medical condition or surgery. For these patients, LiftSeat restores dignity to the basic task of toileting while they recover. LiftSeat's easy-to-use controls operate with the touch of a thumb to smoothly, comfortably and confidently support patients through a natural and familiar sit-to-stand (STS) motion path. For Facilities Safety, Satisfaction, Efficiency LiftSeat significantly reduces the risk of lift-related injuries to nursing staff and patients by supporting one of the most common activities of daily living (ADLs) – toileting. The staff time gained through LiftSeat's superior support of this time-consuming task can be spent more effectively on more productive activities. The reduction of lost hours and days, and reduced Workers' Compensation claims (even premiums) will generate a measurable return on your LiftSeat investment, which can be made with capital or expense dollars. LiftSeat helps acute care facilities create a safe environment for nurses and patients, restores patient privacy and dignity, and supports compliance with safe patient handling legislation and no-lift regulations and policies.
