Optimising comfort and safety while lifting plus size people requires specific techniques and lifting equipment. With the right equipment and techniques, patients have greater rehabilitation prospects and reduced stays in hospital.
Through our rental fleet, we offer the Liko FreeSpan UltraTwin Gantry system for users up to 550 Kg.
The UltraTwin principle is based on the use of two Likorall lift units working in tandem to lift and position the patient. For lifting, both units are used, while for positioning in an upright, semi-seated or prone position, only one lift unit is used.
FreeSpan UltraTwin is height-adjustable to four positions. For acute hospital side room or bed bay configuration, we recommend the 2.5m system which is widely available in our rental fleet.
To facilitate the installation of lift units and/or move the FreeSpan UltraTwin to another location, the lift system can be lowered to the transport position (1700 mm / 67 inch.). FreeSpan UltraTwin has lockable twin castor wheels, is made of aluminium and is despite its low weight a very stable lift system. FreeSpan UltraTwin complies with EN ISO 10535 according to the Medical Device Directive MDD 93/42/EEC.
