Product Overview
Easy Pivot/Stature EasyPivot EP-110 Lift - Deluxe Model for Home Use
EasyPivot Lift - Deluxe Home Duty Patient Lift
The EasyPivot Model EP-110 Lifter is a second generation design of the EP-82 model and was based on customer input. The The Easy Pivot™ Lift features a cut out chest pad, extra deep knee pads, sewn vinyl upholstery, dual handles for strain-free lifting, and larger 1 1/4" x 4" wheels for easier maneuvering.
Built with low cost and home durability in mind, the EP-110 also features a center column for exceptional balance, a three-setting wheelbase (will pass through a 25" wide doorway when configured in the narrow setting), total-lock front wheels (locks both caster and wheel movement), and a unique dual-position stop lock for the chest pad forward pivot. The wheelbase leg width variance is accomplished by bolting the lifter legs in a "V" shape (wider at the front and narrower at the back) which is set at the factory. This versatile lift fits most patients of average size - 4' 8" to 6' 7" and up to 330 pounds.
NOTE:The EP-110 Lifter is custom configured to user's size at the factory prior to shipment. This may cause a 2 - 3 week delay in delivery. You will need the following information available when you call us to place your order:
- Weight of Patient
- Height of Patient
- Bottom of heel to crease in back of knee length of Patient
- Outer width dimensions of Patient's wheelchair (front caster wheels) or front leg width of upholstered chair or other object most commonly used for transfers
The Rand-Scot EasyPivot™ Lifts are designed to meet the needs of the rehabilitation center, acute care facility, long-term care facility or individual home. The mechanical lift reduces caregiver strain and thereby helps prevent back injuries. The EasyPivot™ can lift those needing total assistance such as the MS or SCI quadriplegic or those with stroke. It is also useful for the frail, weak elderly or post-operative patient. It SHOULD NOT be used for those with osteoporosis, contractures, open fractures and new hip or joint replacements or ventilated patients unless medical approval is obtained.
Unlike conventional Patient Lifts that use slings and center point lift hydraulics or electric motors, the EasyPivot™ manually lifts the patient gently while he or she is in a semi-standing position. The machine is rolled in front of the patient while in a sitting position. The feet are placed on the footbase and knees are then placed in the kneepad troughs. A strap is then placed behind the calves to prevent leg movement. The lifter handle is then raised to bring the chest pad against the patient’s chest. The thigh strap is then placed under the patients buttocks and attached to lift on both sides. The caregiver, standing in front of the lift, pulls forward and down on the lift handles which raises and rotates the patient forward into a comfortable stooped over, standing position against the chest pad. A back strap is then attached to stabilize the patient over the chest pad. The patient’s own weight helps in the lifting process. The caregiver’s body mechanics are such that strain is minimized.

History behind the EasyPivot™ Lifters
In 1973, an automobile accident left mechanical engineer Joel Lerich a quadriplegic. After months of rehabilitation Joel mastered most daily tasks. One task, however, proved to be a menacing obstacle: transferring from place to place. Joel never felt quite safe or stable in a traditional sling lift or on a sliding board. He also became concerned about the long term effects of lifting on his wife's health.
There had to be a better way.
Drawing on his mechanical engineering experience, Joel found that
better way and the EasyPivot™ lift was born: a streamlined machine
for safe efficient transfers that contributes to the health of both
the patient and caregiver.
Health & Safety
One of the most difficult challenges of limited mobility is health
and hygiene maintenance. With EasyPivot™, daily routine skin checks
are quick and simple, clothing removal isn't awkward, stretching is
easy and secure, use of commode and transfer to bed is fast and
comfortable.
In a hospital setting, there may be as many as three people available to help with transfers. This is simply not realistic once a patient moves home - yet thousands of people put themselves and their caregivers in danger several times daily by improper manual lifting or inadequate use of slings or boards.
With EasyPivot™, neither the size, strength and agility of the caregiver or the patient are a factor in smooth, successful lifts.
One Person Transfers!
With the EasyPivot™, one caregiver can easily transfer a disabled
individual. Thousands of our lifts are used daily at home with only
one person helping.
This is an important point to consider in today's managed care arena where insurers and health plans often limit the time and number of caregivers they will supply for personal care.
With the EasyPivot™, a small caregiver can lift even tall or heavy persons without fear of injury to themselves or the patient. Learn how it can prevent skin problems. Ask us for case historys and see how the EasyPivot™ can change your life.
