While remaining fully upright, one emergency responder stands behind the HFL with one foot on
the back of the HFL, then both responders lift slightly while sliding the patient to the center of the
HFL’s seat.
NOTE: Remain in a fully standing position while sliding the patient, (to avoid any
bending or back strain).
The remaining steps on the next page are very similar to those covered in the
Standard Lift Procedure
and
Mount Assist Procedure
.

Once the patient is properly positioned in the center of th
e HFL’s seat
as far back on the seat as
possible, (where their back is resting on the HFL’s vertical frame), set the carrying straps to either
side of the HFL and 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.
8.
With one emergency responder positioned behind the HFL, 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.
9.
When the lift has stopped, allow the pati
ent 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). NOTE: If the patient requires transport
(e.g., to a waiting gurney), utilize the
Patient Transport Procedure
starting on page 11.
10.
Once the fallen patient has been recovered, fold then roll the IndeeChuck back to its stowable
configuration, place it back in the storage bag on the HFL and 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.
