Question
looking for a stool to put outside my suv to help my mother step up first then turn around and be able to sit in the car seat. Would this be appropriate

Answer

Dear Kris:

These chairs have approximately 11 in. x14 in.  If you think that your mother would be comfortable making that turn while holding on to a rail than it should work.  Try doing it at home by laying out an area of the same side and put a chair to mimic the handle.

Question
does the lift itself have to be moved once the patient is in it, so that the patien can be moved from the bed to a wheelchairif not, is there any such product?thank you

Answer

Dear Ms. Goldman:

Thank you for your inquiry.  Once an individual is raised by the hoyer lift from the bed, the lift would then have to be swung around. A wheelchair / commode would then be moved underneath the patient prior to lowering.  If the patient is being moved from a commode to a wheelchair or vice versa, then the lift can remain stationary.   The only way to accomodate your request would be through a device similar to a lift suspended from a ceiling.  That option may be too cost prohibitive for home use.  Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Question
What is the difference between a Litter Pad and a Hinged Pad when it comes to purchasing one. We have a cart at our facility that needs a new pad and I am unsure which kind I would need to purchase.

Answer

Dear Jody,

Thank you for the inquiry.  A litter pad is a flat, straight pad. These are usually provided for stretchers that do not have a fowler backrest.  The hinged pad bends easily and has indentions for  a fowler backrest.  Please let me know the dimensions you need for your pad, we actually can do a custom quote. I would also need to know the make and model of your stretcher so we can match it perfectly.

Respectfully,
