If you or someone you love is bed-ridden, Next Health’s AgileLife Living System for patient transfer can help.

For most of us, getting out of bed is a simple and almost automatic activity. But for 1.6 million Americans who can’t get out of bed on their own, this simple task is a major barrier to quality of life.

Next Health now offers the AgileLife Living System, an automated, no lift patient transfer and mobility system. The AgileLife patient transfer system helps people who are bedridden move in and out of bed easily, safely and quickly. This innovative patient transfer system transports the patient down the bed and into a wheelchair docked at the foot of the bed. Click here to see a demonstration.

For caregivers, AgileLife automates patient transfer to and from a hospital bed and wheelchair or commode chair, without any patient lifting. In both the home and institutional setting, the AgileLife patient transfer system virtually eliminates risk of patient falls and can reduce the development of bed sores (decubitus ulcers) through increased patient mobility. The AgileLife patient transfer system is the only true “no lift” device that can reduce nursing injury due to musculoskeletal strain.
 
Disabled individuals regain their dignity and independence. Family burden is reduced without resorting to nursing home care or exorbitant in-home hourly expense.  Caregivers can save time and avoid career threatening injuries. Insurers save money as a result of improved patient and caregiver outcomes.  Few technologies hold so much promise to so many throughout the healthcare system.

At Next Health we are committed to “Simply Transform Caregiving."
