Patient Transfer Scale

Introduction

Why you need the Patient Transfer Scale

In many cases weighing immobile patients can be excessively time consuming, or not possible at all. As a result the weight reading may be estimated, or not recorded. Until now. The Patient Transfer Scale allows you to accurately weigh an immobile patient, in a fraction of the time it takes to use a hoist or bed scale. It's Class III and MDD Approved, making it legal for weighing prior to medication or treatment.

Use it as part of your existing processes

The Patient Transfer Scale is a transfer board (transfer slide) with an integrated weighing scale. This means weighing a patient is no longer time you need to account for, because it is now part of an already existing process of lateral transfer from trolley to bed, or bed to bed. Simply place the Patient Transfer Scale between the trolley and the bed, and slide the patient over to get a weight reading.

A revolutionary idea from an ED nurse

Former NHS Emergency Department nurse Gillian Taylor had first-hand experience of struggling to weigh immobile patients, and was determined to find a solution. The result is the Patient Transfer Scale. This revolutionary weighing scale can be used in Emergency Departments, ICUs, Cardiac, Stroke, Spinal, Renal, X-ray and care homes. In fact, anywhere an immobile patient needs to be weighed.
