Patient Transport Procedure
(continued):
7.
Once arriving at the destination, remain positioned behind the HFL and allow the HFL and the
patient to tilt forward until the patient and the HFL are in the fixed position.
8.
Ask the patient if they are ready to be lifted. When they are ready, press the Up/Down Rocker
Switch upward and hold the switch in the up position until it reaches the full height and
automatically stops.
9.
Once the lift has stopped, ensure the patient’s feet are positioned properly for standing,
unbuckle both seat belts then offer to assist the patient as they stand up from the seat, (as they
would from any chair).
NOTE: If transferring the patient to a gurney, adjust the height of the
gurney to be slightly lower than
the height of the HFL’s raised seat, then
assist the patient from
the HFL onto the gurney.
10.
When done, return the seat to the fully downward (home) position before rolling the HFL back to
the emergency apparatus.
NOTE: Always ensure there are no foreign objects below the seat
before returning it to the home position.
11.
Before stowing the HFL on the emergency apparatus, stow the belt assemblies and return the
HFL to its stowed configuration by reversing the procedures for
Deploying the HFL
on page 7.
Backboard Lift Procedure:
This procedure requires at least two participants and is used to lift a patient that has been properly
secured to a backboard for transfer to a gurney without any manual lifting.
NOTE: It is recommended that
you view the HFL-600-E training video as you learn this procedure.
1.
Position the HFL centered as close to the backboard as possible.
This will achieve a proper balance
when lifting the patient secured to the backboard.
2.
One participant performs a slight log-roll of the backboard (away from the HFL) as the other
participant
positions the HFL’s seat under the
backboard.
3.
Once the HFL is properly positioned, the two participants log-roll the backboard onto the HFL.
