Nile Leg Lifter

Product Details

For anyone who has trouble getting in and out of bed without assistance, the electrically powered Nile leg lifter can transfer their legs in a comfortable and effortless action improving mobility and active independence. The Nile has a vinyl pad to help support and lift the legs up to a vertical angle of 90 degrees. The Nile is height adjustable to ensure that the Nile’s pad is level with the bed and that the client’s legs can safely transition from the lifter to the bed and vice versa. The Nile operates in a smooth fluid motion to minimize the chance of pain or discomfort for the patient when in use. The Nile lifts a person’s legs in virtual silence meaning that it will not cause any unwanted disturbances for the client using the product or anyone nearby.

The Nile is low maintenance, easy to use and set up to a client’s bed; the brackets can securely fit onto the bed, and the lift is operated with a straightforward handset. The Nile can be made bespoke to the client’s physical measurements and their current bed minimizing the risk of complications when using the leg lifter to get into bed. The standard Nile has a weight limit of 25 stone (158 kilos) with a bariatric Nile available that can support up to 50 stone (317 kilos).

The Nile2 comes with universal fittings for a range of different beds including divan or community profiling beds and has 22mm brackets as standard.

When it comes to helping carers, the Nile can significantly reduce the risk of back strain or injury. By needing to regularly lift, move and handle clients, carers can potentially put pressure or harm their muscles. The Nile significantly reduces or entirely remove the need for moving and handling, leading to a better overall health and quality of life for carers
