Typically, the upper anchor points are used with the additional belt assembly when needed as a chest
belt. The chest belt is used along with the waist belt when a patient is to be transported on the lift
. The
standard use of the belt assemblies as waist belts, chest belts, and for a backboard lift are covered in
more detail in the
Operation
section of this manual.
Optional Belt Configurations:
While the standard configurations described above will work well for most situations, the IndeeLift HFLs
for EMS have
six
anchor points which provide emergency responders with many different belt options,
(depending on the circumstances). These options include, but are not limited to, those shown below.
Standard Lift Procedure:
This procedure is used for a standard lift-assist where the patient is conscious and simply needs assistance
being lifted from the floor.
NOTE: It is recommended that you view theHFL-600-E training video as you
learn this procedure.
1.
Position the HFL directly behind the fallen patient, with the seat positioned as close to the
fallen patient’s buttocks as possible.
2.
Have the patient scoot themselves backwards onto the seat, until their back is resting on the
HFL’s
vertical frame. NOTE: If the fallen patient has difficulty scooting backwards onto the seat,
use the
Mount Assist Procedure starting
on page 10.
