3.
Once the patient is fully seated to the rear of the HFL
’s
seat, ask the patient to lift their arms
slightly and, using one of the belt assemblies as a waist belt (i.e., secured to the lower anchor
points), position the belt around the
patient’s
waist, buckle the seat belt and remove any slack.
4.
Position yourself behind the HFL and ask the patient if they are ready to be lifted. Once they are
ready, press the up/down rocker switch upward and hold the switch in the up position.
The seat
will rise for approximately sixty seconds and then stop.
5.
Once the lift has stopped,
allow the patient to rest if needed, ensure the patient’s feet are
positioned properly for standing, unbuckle the seat belt then offer to assist the patient as they
stand up from the seat, (as they would from any chair).
6.
Once the fallen patient has been recovered, return the seat to the fully downward (home)
position before rolling the HFL back to the apparatus.
NOTE: Always ensure there are no
foreign objects below the seat before returning it to the home position.
7.
If desired, the HFL can be used as a dolly to transport equipment/cargo
or tools back to the emergency apparatus. Load the gear on the HFL
then
raise the seat by approximately 6” for proper balance, place on
e
foot on the stainless-steel footrest on the back of the HFL. Slightly tilt
the unit backwards by slowly pulling the handles towards you. The HFL
can now be pulled or pushed back to the emergency apparatus.
Note:
Some manual doors dictate the need to pull the HFL through from
behind.
NOTE: Before stowing the HFL on the apparatus, stow the belt assemblies and return the
HFL to its fully stowed configuration by reversing the procedures for
Deploying the HFL
on
page 7.
Mount Assist Procedure:
This procedure is used for medical-assist calls and lift-assists where the patient is unable to mount the
device themselves.
NOTE: It is recommended that you view the HFL-500-E training video as you learn this
procedure.
1.
With the patient laying down on the floor, position the HFL behind them and position the
patient’s legs as far forward as possible,
(
to form an “L” shape
).
2.
Adjust the positioning of the HFL
to have one edge of the seat as close to the patient’s
buttocks as possible.
