Etac Turner Transfer Aid
ILC Reference NO 44:41:003
Item sourced from ILC QLD database
Short Description
A free standing rotating transfer aid with a foot operated lockable circular base (the base locks in place when the patient stands on it; the lock is released when the caregiver presses down on the pedal.) Also features transport wheels and a vertical support bar. The vertical support bar is fitted with two adjustable height padded knee supports and an adjustable height tubular enclosed handle on top of the frame. The disc facilitates standing pivot transfers. It is manually operated by an attendant.
Caution
It is recommended that prior to using this product, training in manual handling and the correct use of assistive devices should be undertaken.
More Details
The Turner transfer Aid is used to transfer a person from one seated position to another when turning is difficult for them.
Designed for relatively active care recipients. The Turner should only be used with persons who can adequately weight bear and stand with support. The care recipient controls how they stand up. This reduces the risk of falling, and it also allows the carer to work in an ergonomically correct manner. Only the height of the handle and the knee brace need adjusting.
It works by counterbalance and leverage.
The castors will run smoothly on any surface and they make the Turner easy to bring or push out of the way when not in use. The Turner must not be used to transport a person.
Folds by a knock down function which allows for easy transport and storage.
Clean the product with a solvent free detergent which has a pH of 5-9, or with a 70% disinfectant solution. Can be decontaminated at max. 85 °C if so required.
