UpLyft Summary:
UpLyft® is a revolutionary patient transfer system for people with limited mobility, caregivers, and healthcare workers. In a home setting, wheelchair users can self-transfer themselves with UpLyft from a horizontal lying down position in bed into their wheelchair, and vice versa. Transferring with UpLyft can take as little as ~2 minutes, with no caregiver assistance required! Alternatively, UpLyft can be used by home caregivers, as well as nurses in healthcare institutions to transfer their loved ones or patients without exerting any physical force or physically lifting the individual. UpLyft replaces slings, body boards, and other inferior “lift to stand” mechanisms that require nursing assistance and physical force to transfer individuals with mobility challenges.
