REHAB is excited to share the addition of Handicare QuickMove Sit-to-Stand Transfer Aids to each of our hospital floors. “The QuickMove enhances the safety and efficiency of our patient transfers by drastically decreasing the amount of lifting needed to get a patient from point A to point B,” shared Brandon Wong, REHAB’s Director of Nursing and Interim Chief Nursing Officer.
The QuickMove Sit-to-Stand Transfer Aids are part of REHAB’s ongoing commitment to investing in tools that improve patient care and support staff in their daily work. The addition of this equipment not only decreases the likelihood of staff injury, but can also be used as a physical therapy tool and ultimately allows patients to maximize their independence.
“As a patient, if you had a stroke, and now somebody's carrying you everywhere, it doesn't feel great for your sense of self. These devices allow patients to do as much as they can on their own while still being supported.”
