Invacare® Stand Assist

1.2 Intended Use

WARNING!
Risk of Falling
The Invacare stand assist lift is NOT a transport device.
It is intended to transfer an individual from one resting
surface to another (such as a bed to a wheelchair).
Invacare slings and patient lift accessories are specifically
designed to be used in conjunction with Invacare patient
lifts.
To avoid injury or falls:
– Patients who are transferred and positioned using the
stand assist lift MUST be cooperative, coherent and
have head and neck control. Otherwise, injury may
occur.
– Patients who are transferred and positioned using the
stand assist sling MUST be able to support a majority
of their own weight. Otherwise, injury or damage
may occur. Refer to the sling user manual for more
information.
Stand assist lifts are battery-powered transfer devices, designed to be
used in most of the common lifting situations, for example:
•
Between the bed and a wheelchair
•
To and from the toilet
The stand assist lift is only intended to lift patients up to the maximum
weight limit stated in technical data.
Selecting the appropriate slings and accessories for each individual is
important to assure safety when using a patient lift. See Invacare's
sling and accessory user manuals for further information on those
devices.
