Because manual patient transfer in the home can be dangerous for both healthcare staff and patients, alternative methods continue to be studied and developed. Body UP® Evolution understands the needs of the mobility-impaired and has revolutionized the industry with its more dignified and eco-friendly patient transfer system.

Challenges for the Mobility-Impaired


Going to and from the bed, the house, and even the car can be difficult for someone with a mobility impairment. It is something that can come with age or debilitating joint diseases, such as arthritis, osteoporosis and podiatric problems.

In addition to being confined to one’s home or hospital bed, the inability to safely lift and transfer patients can lead to physical and psychological issues, including:
  • Muscle atrophy
  • Muscle pain
  • Pressure sores
  • Incontinence
  • Depression
  • Sensory Deprivation
  • Delirium
  • Dementia

There are many mobility products that allow the elderly and mobility-impaired to get out and enjoy life almost as well as they did prior to their disability. A safe patient transfer device not only allows the mobility-impaired to engage in day-to-day functions, it also provides a dignified method for patient transfer and patient lift.

In addition, Medicare generally pays up to 80 percent of the cost of durable medical equipment with a doctor’s approval. Not to mention the fact that Body UP® Evolution’s patient transfer can save money by replacing other assistance equipment including power lifters, commode chairs, bath/shower seats, car/van access lifters, and can even replace your home wheelchair for most daily activities.

Furthermore, Body UP® Evolution’s patient transfer saves space. Compared to other patient transfer devices like the Hoyer Lift, Body UP® Evolution’s patient-friendly design make its presence very discreet when not in use.


Improving Quality of Life


People are living longer than ever. Today, 30 million Americans are seniors. By 2050, there are expected to be almost 90 million American seniors. Enabling seniors and the mobility-impaired to live active and independent lives for as long as possible, as well as those that care for them, will go a long way in improving quality of life.

To your health and mobility! Body UP®, www.rehabresultsllc.com. Body UP® is not the Hoyer Lift. Body UP® differs from the Hoyer Lift because of its light-weight, portable, and eco-friendly design. Body UP® is a safe and dignified patient transfer. Going from wheelchair to any desired location has never been easier!
