Promove is an emergency evacuation sling for moving and handling incapacitated or disabled individuals.

If you are member of the emergency services you may be required to move disabled, incapacitated or overweight individuals in life threatening situations. Promove can be placed beneath an individual in a confined or outdoor location with the least difficulty, and used to move the individual into an evacuation chair or a stretcher with a minimum risk to the operatives.

If you manage care of elderly, frail or disabled people your staff will sometimes be required to move and handle clients who have become incapacitated in some way. For example, someone cannot get up from a low sofa, transfer from a park bench or may have fallen, Promove can be used in these unpredictable situations to provide a safe and secure transfer.

If you are a disabled person and enjoy an active lifestyle the Promove sling can help you. For example, the Promove can assist your family or friends to transfer you from your wheelchair without injuring you or placing a strain on themselves. With a safe means of transfer you can enjoy so many more of life’s experiences.

The Promove can be used to evacuate an incapacitated or disabled individual from a building, such as a theatre or sports stadium. Through working in stages and with the help of two or more operatives, Promove can be used to safely move an individual from the seating area into an evacuation chair where they can then be removed securely from the building.

If you are an airport service provider and move and handle passengers with reduced mobility (PRM) on and off aircraft, then the Promove sling is for you. The Promove can be used to transfer PRM’s from their wheelchair into a narrow boarding chair and then into the aircraft seat. Transfers using the Promove will minimise the risk of injury to the passenger and the operatives.

In schools and colleges active disabled young people will need to transfer from their wheelchairs either in an emergency or to be involved in activities their peers enjoy. In situations where a hoist cannot be used, the pupil or student can be transferred from a wheelchair by a team of support staff. The add-on hoist straps also make both sizes of sling suitable for hoisting.
