 WARNING

Pinch points exist at base of lift. Be careful, injury could occur.

OPERATING THE BATH LIFT

Traverse Lift/Transporter 10 Part No. 1150696

SECTION 2—OPERATING THE

BATH LIFT

 WARNING

DO NOT attempt any transfer of a resident without approval of the resident's

physician, nurse, or medical assistant. Thoroughly read the instructions in this

owner's manual, observe a trained team of experts performing the lifting

procedures and then perform the entire lift procedure several times with proper

supervision and a capable individual acting as a resident.

ICCI recommends the use of the safety strap and shoulder harness when using the

bath lift. Always adjust the safety strap and shoulder harness for safety and comfort

before transferring the resident onto the chair.

The safety strap should be used when lifting or transferring. Otherwise, the resident

may fall from the seat.

Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made before moving the resident.

Lock the rear casters of the bath lift when transferring an individual onto the seat or

stretcher. Locking the rear casters will stabilize the lift and help prevent it from

shifting during transfer.

Each facility and each resident will require a unique set of instructions and

procedures to follow for each bath. Check with your supervisor and the resident’s

chart for the proper procedures to follow.

Review and practice the operation with an able bodied assistant before attempting

with a resident.

NOTE:ICCIrecommendsthattwoassistantsbeusedforallliftingpreparationandtransferringto/

fromprocedures;however,thebathliftcanbeoperatedwithoneassistant.

SECTION 3—USING THE SCALE

 WARNING

DO NOT attempt any transfer of a resident without approval of the resident's

physician, nurse, or medical assistant. Thoroughly read the instructions in this

owner's manual, observe a trained team of experts performing the lifting

procedures and then perform the entire lift procedure several times with proper

supervision and a capable individual acting as a resident.

ICCI recommends the use of the safety strap and shoulder harness when using the

bath lift. Always adjust the safety strap and shoulder harness for safety and comfort

before transferring the resident onto the chair.

The safety strap should be used when lifting or transferring. Otherwise, the resident

may fall from the seat.

Make adjustments for safety and comfort before moving the resident.

Lock the rear casters of the bath lift when transferring an individual onto the seat or

stretcher. Locking the rear casters will stabilize the lift and help prevent it from

shifting during transfer.

Each facility and each resident will require a unique set of instructions and

procedures to follow for each bath. Check with your supervisor and the resident’s

chart for the proper procedures to follow.

Review and practice the operation with an able bodied assistant before attempting

with a resident.
