Safe and Efficient Care for Caregivers and Patients

Patient handling is a critical aspect of caregiving that directly impacts both caregiver safety and patient comfort. Poor handling techniques can lead to caregiver injuries, patient discomfort, and even long-term musculoskeletal issues. Ehucon's patient handling solutions are designed to minimize caregiver strain while maximizing patient safety and dignity, ensuring smooth and efficient care in various settings, from hospitals to home care.

Safe Transfers and Repositioning

Transferring patients between beds, chairs, and wheelchairs is one of the most physically demanding tasks for caregivers. Improper techniques can result in injuries to both the caregiver and the patient.

Key Solutions:

Tubular Slide Sheets (FCP210198T-100x120cm)

Low-friction material enables smooth repositioning with minimal effort. Reduces shear forces, protecting fragile skin during transfers. Ideal for bariatric patients, supporting weights up to 300kg.
