Patient Lifting Cushion
The Mangar Eagle patient lifting cushion is our smart home lifting solution. The Eagle is tailor-made for home care, designed to both sit up and lift a fallen person, and aims to help people with their independence and dignity whilst protecting carers from back injury sustained through repetitive lifting. With an inbuilt backrest, the Eagle supports the patient as they are being lifted for a stable, comfortable lift from the floor to a raised chair position. It lifts up to 485 lb/220 kg and has a slimline design to fit into tight spaces, inside or outside, and is constructed from extremely strong, durable polyurethane coated nylon. It can be packed away into a lightweight, compact bag for easy transportation.
