Can your staff move a 550 pound patient and wheelchair across a carpet or up ramps smoothly, safely and effortlessly?
Introducing the Dane WheelChair Mover– the industry’s first power-assist device making patient wheelchair transport safe, smooth and easy. Designed by hospital safety experts for use by hospital personnel, the Dane WheelChair Mover fits all standard wheelchair sizes and models in your facility, easily transporting patients safely and securely around hallways, in elevators, and up and down ramps while reducing potential injury or physical strain to personnel. (As we all know, injuries often are a result of cumulative strain and fatigue.)
The WheelChair Mover uses a simple hand lever design that activates secure hitching to the frame of the wheelchair. The ergonomic design of the machine makes it easy for the operator who controls the speed with easy and controlled throttle acceleration. With the unit securing the frame at a low center of gravity, turning the wheelchair in a circle is smooth and effortless. Compact and quiet, the Dane WheelChair Mover is the ideal device to fit within hospital rooms and halls while meeting the objectives of safe patient handling and moving programs.
