Policy on Number of Staff Members
Required for Patient Transfer
ArjoHuntleigh’s passive and active series of lifts
are designed for safe usage with one caregiver.
There are circumstances, such as combativness,
obesity, contracture etc. of the individual that may
dictate the need for a two-person transfer. It is the
responsibility of each facility or medical
professional to determine if a one or two person
transfer is more appropriate, based on the task,
resident load, environment, capability, and skill
level of the staff members.
