no lift, low lift, tow lift

We shipped some vests off the other day to a home health agency that belongs to a larger franchised system. They were delighted to discover us because they have been turning business down from potential clients due the the franchise preference for no lift. Honestly, that is an untenable way to help people. The people that need help in transfer and ambulation are the most likely candidates to hire a home health agency. So this franchisee has decided to accept those clients from now on. Why? Because the vest makes it possible. Safe for the client and safe for the caregiver.

Sorting it all out

I have been trying to build a compelling argument for a specific audience for our vest and I keep running into one problem..to much information! Lifting patients accounted for one half of all direct patient activity associated injuries. Nurses are lifting thousands of pounds per day, one estimate in the industry is 1.8 tons daily per nurse. Health care workers missed 45,000 days of work in 2007. 2009 out of pocket expenses for injuries in the industry are approximately 110 billion dollars......
You can see what I mean.

Our retail website is finally up and functional, thanks Linda and Ryan! We can take orders now and really change lives one vest at a time. The new vest (how does Uni-Vest sound)should be rolling soon. It is a Universal vest good for transferring people, PT work, ambulating in general. More soon.
