Liko HygieneVest is designed for safe lifting and transfer to
and from the toilet.
In terms of function and safety, the HygieneVest offers unique
advantages and works well in complicated problem situations
where no other alternatives are appropriate. The HygieneVest
has an outer vest section that surrounds and firmly supports
the upper body during lifting. A generous opening around
the seat leaves much of the lower body free for dressing and
undressing during the actual lifting operation in connection
with visits to the toilet.
Liko HygieneVest enables a stable, upright sitting posture.
HygieneVest can also be used for severely functionally
disabled amputees or those who have problems with
spasticity.
Even patients with limited torso stability and poor muscle
tone can usually manage lifts with the HygieneVest, and they
find it secure and comfortable.
The HygieneVest is intended for sit-to-sit lifting.
The sitting posture is almost fully upright, which facilitates
lifts to the toilet and positioning in a wheelchair.
Since the HygieneVest is not placed over the hips, it is ideal
for lifting to and from custom-moulded seats and close-fitting
wheelchairs.
HygieneVest is made of green polyester and the leg supports
are reinforced and padded with a curduroy fabric.

IMPORTANT!
Lifting and transferring a patient always involves a certain level of risk. Read the instructions for use for both the patient
lift and lifting accessories before use. It is important to completely understand the contents of the instructions for use.
The equipment should only be used by trained personnel. Ensure that the lifting accessories are suitable for the lift used.
Exercise care and caution during use. As a caregiver, you are always responsible for the patient’s safety. You must be aware
of the patient’s ability to make it through the lifting situation. If something is unclear, contact the manufacturer or supplier.
