Promove can be quickly placed beneath an individual in a confined (eg crashed vehicle) or outdoor location with minimum displacement (vital where skeletal injury may be suspected) facillitating efficient evacuation & minimising stress on service providers
Corporate and private carers of elderly, frail or disabled people use ProMove to move and handle clients who have become incapacitated e.g. someone cannot get up from a low sofa, transfer from a park bench or may have fallen. Promove is easily used in these unpredictable situations to provide a safer more secure transfer where a hoist is unavailable.
Disabled people enjoying an active lifestyle use the Promove sling to help them enjoy more of life’s experiences. e.g. Promove can assist your family or friends to transfer you from your wheelchair without injuring you or placing a strain on themselves. Why risk discomfort? Travel with your personal PROMOVE and ensure comformatable boarding and disembarking at all UK and international locations.
Promove is used as an evacuation aid from buildings such as theatres or sports stadiums. Working in stages and with the help of two or more operatives, Promove is used to safely move an individual from the seating area into the exit zone.
UK Airport service providers use Promove slings to move passengers with reduced mobility (PRM), transfering PRM’s from their wheelchair into a narrow boarding chair onto the aircraft seat, maximising comfort & minimising the risk of injury to the passenger and the operatives. Unfortunately Promove is not currently used by non-UK airports, but individual PRMs travel with their own portable Promove easily stowed in their hand luggage.
Schools and colleges enhance the activies of disabled young people using Promove to transfer to and from their wheelchairs either in an emergency or for involvement in activities. Students can be comfortably and safely transferred from a wheelchair by support staff. In situations where a hoist is available, the add-on hoist straps facillitate hoisting.
