| Hospital testing of the Ergotrans “When the hospital transfer team was given the Ergotrans to try out. Carlos, a member of our transfer team, used it on patient Harold Smith. Harold had just had a double amputation at the knees. Carlos transferred Harold setting him into a chair. When Carlos did not return to the floor to put Harold back into bed, Harold’s 70 year old wife, Diane, used the Ergotrans to get Harold back into bed. The staff was amazed that it was so easy for Diane to use. Upon Harold’s release from the hospital, Diane asked me where she could get an Ergotrans to use at home. I gave her the sample we had used. She thanked me months later, telling me that it made the difference between her caring for Harold at home and having to put him in a nursing home.” - Sheila C, OTR/L-CHT Sheila is an Occupational Therapist in southern CA. She was in charge of administering a test with the transfer team at the hospital where she worked. The names were changed in this text. |
Nursing Home Incident
The same week that Ergotrans was hospital tested, I heard from Sheila by phone.
The hospital had just received a patient from a nursing home. This elderly woman
had been dropped by the attending staff when they were trying to transfer her
using a bed sheet. She was admitted into the hospital with a broken hip and wrist
from the fall. The attending staff also sustained injuries from being thrown off
balance and trying to keep their patient from falling. Her response to me was,
“Sindy, if only they were using your Ergotrans, this could have been prevented.”

More from Sheila C, OTR/L-CHT
When it comes to moving, lifting or assisting patients and disabled family members, the Ergotrans is a great
invention. The two-part system, with the waist and thigh belts, helps assure that the belt doesn't slide up under
the patients arms, or possibly even have the patient slide out of the belt onto the floor, which is not an
uncommon problem with other transfer belts.
The Ergotrans is no flimsy product...it is made of strong materials. The two-part system makes the transfer both
easier and safer for all people involved. This safer two-part system gives your patient a greater sense of
security too, because they see the strong material, nylon strapping and buckles that hold it all together.
If you start by placing it on from a lying down position, the thigh handles are perfect for effortless help during
rolling. And from a seated position, those same thigh handles make all the difference in sliding a patient
forward. We therapist's know that it helps to be able to "feel" a correct movement and the thigh handles help for
both feeling and doing the weight-shift stage of the transfer process. When combined with a curved transfer
board, it can safely help a patient move over a large gap of space, ie: from a vehicle to a wheelchair or scooter,
or to a shower chair in a bathtub.
The years of design modification has perfected the Ergotrans so that it is easy to use, safe and effective for all
patient transfer mobility situations. It's great for the therapy clinic, the patient room, the car, or the house. The
Ergotrans can save the hard-working muscles and backs of nurses, therapists, care-givers and family members
who use it.

| The following comments were made by John, my Physical Therapist “I believe the Ergotrans needs to be used in every skilled nursing facility in this country. As a therapist who sees many caregivers as my patient, I can see that if the Ergotrans were to be used: the number of injuries to caregivers could easily be reduced.” “One of the problems with transferring patients for the person performing the transfer is leverage. Depending on upper body strength, height, and weight, certain transfers can be tricky if not dangerous. The Ergotrans allows the clinician to apply force to the right areas to allow for easy and effortless transfers while keeping safety for both the patient and the clinician uncompromised. It is a great design.” - John Harrison, PT CEAS |
