Are you concerned about the very real potential for
back injury if you needed to lift someone who has fallen?
There is danger in helping someone who has fallen get up off the floor, especially if the person is weak and cannot help you. However, the ELK Lift is a patient handling system that uses an air compressor and an inflatable cushion to minimize your struggle to move, lift and transfer your patient or loved one.
ELK Emergency Patient Lifting Cushions are the perfect combination of assistance and portability. They operate with low air pressure to inflate safely and fully from bottom to top in about 3 minutes. The ELK Patient Lifter is comprised of two parts - an inflatable cushion and an air pump. |  |

The lift system is easy to use:
 | Put the deflated ELK cushion next to the fallen person and roll them onto their back, on top of the cushion. |
 | Then help them to a seated position on top of the ELK. |
 | Inflate the lift while they sit on it. The cushion inflates gradually and safely without any effort on the caregiver's part. |
 | The lift cushion finishes inflating in about 3 minutes. |
| Special Notes | If you are not a professional, please talk with an Occupational Therapist about the best way to utilize this equipment to minimize injuries. The assembly and inflation of the unit should be practiced so that you can act quickly in the event of a fall. |
