Ergolet In Arkansas


Ergolet known for their lifts, hoists, stands, chairs, track systems and patient trolleys is now carried and installed by Cook and Son Construction. This innovative way to care for those immobilized is truly making possible independent living for those who do not wish to be in nursing homes or other care facilities. Loved ones who may not have the strength to lift those they care for are still able to care for them at home with the help of these aids.

Their newest product introduces a new high-capacity patient lift. With a 600 lb capacity, the Luna 600 overhead lift can be used either as a ceiling mounted or portable lift to help healthcare workers and home caregivers handle heavier patients.

“Our research is revealing an alarming number of severe, career-limiting injuries suffered by nurses and other healthcare professionals,” said Molly Donaldson, Ergolet’s North American Dealer Services Manager. “We want to dial down the problem in the medical industry where healthcare professionals and caregivers are turning into patients themselves – with spinal injuries, muscle strains and low back injuries.”

Donaldson said injuries are on the rise because caregivers doing the lifting often can’t lift with their legs while leaning over a bed, coupled with increasingly heavy patients.

“We want to help people in healthcare protect themselves – and their employers – by using biomechanics to lift patients instead of trying to use brute strength,” Donaldson said.

She said the Luna 600 provides comfort and confidence for both the patient and the caregiver by providing a smooth lifting motion. She said other aspects of the Luna 600 include the psychological advantage of its aesthetically-pleasing design and its ability to service multiple rooms.

“We want to enable safer conditions for caregivers along with greater dignity and comfort for patients through the use of the Luna 600 and our other lift products,” Donaldson said.

Ergolet markets patient aids such as lifts, hoists, stands, chairs, track systems and patient trolleys into the medical and independent living categories. The company, founded in 1973, has a strong market presence among hospitals, senior care facilities and clinics, particularly in Europe. Ergolet has a heritage as an innovator, with a bias for new ideas and designs.
