In today’s Healthcare institutions, injuries to Healthcare professionals, as a result of patient handling and transport, continues to be one of the biggest issues confronting hospital administrators across the US. Historically, over 50% of all nursing injuries are related to patient handling and movement costing tens of millions of dollars to facilities annually.
Every hospital department related to patient care transports patients. Nursing staff, transport staff medical technicians and volunteers are faced with moving patients multiple times a day with manual wheelchairs.
The Ergo-Express® PTC1 motorized patient mover virtually eliminates injuries typically related to manual patient transport.
All departmental staff can benefit by implementing the routine use of the Ergo-Express® PTC 1 Motorized Patient Transport Chair versus manual wheelchairs. Size does not matter for the patient or the attending staff.
The Ergo-Express® PTC 1 motorized patient transport chair does all the work.
