SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System
SureHands Ceiling Track Lift is a very unique system, and what we love about it is that it creates independence for the person using it. The SureHands Over Head Track Lift System makes it possible for people to transfer themselves versus having a caretaker or nurse transfer them.
Features of SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System
The SureHands Lift features an infrared remote control, which combined with the Body Support, makes it possible for independent transfers, no more waiting for your caregiver to get up and go!
We can then install a track system on the ceiling to where you may need to transfer, for example: from your bedroom to your bathroom.
The use of Body Support makes transfers with an attendant almost effortless reducing injury to the caregiver and patient. The SureHands Lift can also utilize a variety of body slings for those who cannot transfer independently.
Contact us from anywhere in Michigan and we will schedule our technician to come to your home or facility to do an evaluation and determine what type of lift is best for you.
FAQ
1. What is the primary benefit of installing a SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System in my home?
The main advantage of the SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System is its ability to significantly enhance independence for people with mobility challenges. This system allows users to transfer themselves without waiting for a caregiver, thanks to options like an infrared remote control and specially designed body supports. For those who need assistance, it also makes the process safer and less physically demanding for both the user and the caregiver, thereby reducing the risk of injury for everyone involved.
2. How adaptable is the system for different spaces and transfer needs?
SureHands ceiling track systems are highly customizable to fit the unique layout and needs of each home. Tracks can be installed on the ceiling or from wall to wall, including straight or curved rails that navigate around obstacles. This allows seamless transfers between various locations such as the bed, toilet, shower, or even multiple rooms, depending on the configuration chosen. There are also solutions for spaces that cannot have ceiling modifications, such as temporary or free-standing rail systems.
3. What is involved in the installation process, and do I need professional help?
Installing a SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System usually requires a professional assessment and installation to ensure optimal safety and functionality. CAPS Remodeling’s specialists will evaluate your home or facility to determine the best lift type and track design specific to your needs. Professional installers take care of securely mounting the track to the ceiling structure, considering weight capacity, safe transfer points, and efficient routing. This process ensures the system meets safety standards and performs reliably for daily use.
4. Are there options for both independent and assisted transfers?
Yes, the SureHands system accommodates a wide range of mobility needs. For those who can transfer independently, there are body supports and remote controls that allow solo operation. For individuals needing more help, a variety of slings and body supports make it much easier and safer for a caregiver to assist, minimizing lifting strain for both parties. This flexibility means the same system can benefit users with varying levels of independence.
5. What kind of maintenance does the Ceiling Track Lift System require?
Maintenance for the SureHands Ceiling Track Lift System is straightforward but essential to ensure safety and longevity. Routine tasks include dusting and wiping down the lift and track to keep them clean, periodically testing the lift’s function, and inspecting signs of wear on the track or motor. Professional inspections are recommended at least annually to catch any issues early and maintain smooth operation. Most body supports are made from hygienic materials that require only a wipe-down as part of regular upkeep.
