HealthCraft Products Inc. is a leading manufacturer of transfer support products designed to provide solid support, while reducing the potential for falls. We have compiled the following information to help educate dealers, therapists, caregivers, and end users on fall prevention...

Wear clothes that will not interfere with walking and transferring; ie: long gowns are a hazard.

Wear properly fitted, low-heeled, non-slip footwear for walking and transferring.

Keep your pathways and steps free of ice, snow, newspapers and leaves.

Keep your place of residence clutter-free.

Make sure all areas of the home are properly lit, including hallways and stairways.

Keep floors dry, wiping up any spills immediately.

Remove all area rugs.

Keep all electrical wires and telephone cords secured safely out of pathways.

Have regular eyesight check-ups, and adjust your eyewear accordingly.

Engage in a doctor approved exercise program to increase strength and general mobility; normal aging brings with it changes that can affect your balance and walking.

Ensure your doctor and pharmacist are aware of all your medications, including non-prescription and herbal remedies as they can have interactions or side-effects which affect mobility and walking.

Be aware that some medications can affect your blood pressure.

When moving to a standing position from a lying position, it is important to rest in a sitting position, and again in a supported standing position prior to walking. This gives your blood pressure a chance to stabilize.

Have frequently used items stored in easily accessible places, to avoid reaching and climbing.

Ask for assistance with heavy work.

Proper placement / installation and use of support products will increase safety and independence.

HealthCraft has developed a guide to help you choose the appropriate transfer aid for your needs.

Each level is defined by how you might categorize yourself. Consult your therapist before choosing the assistance level that is right for you.

Assistance Level 1: Minimal
I can stand up or transfer on my own, but need some support for safety. I may use a cane and/or a walker on occasion.

Assita-Rail / Smart-Rail / Easy Mount Grab Bars

Assistance Level 2: Moderate
I require firm or solid support to be able to complete standing or transfers. I may use a cane and/or a walker on occasion. I occasionally use a scooter on days where I'm feeling a bit tired.

SuperPole / Traveller / SuperPole F.R.S. / Advantage Pole

Assistance Level 3: Maximum
I am not able to perform standing and transferring without assistance. I require leaning & resting support. I depend on my walkers / wheelchair to get around.

SuperBar / SuperTrapeze / Safety Island /

Parallel Bar System / Advantage Rail /

Dependa-Bar / P.T.Rail / ModRail / ModBar

Assistance Level 4: Powered Assistance I require the use of a mechanical lift or powered device to safely perform transfers. I will apply most, if not all, of my body weight on the transfer aide. I use a wheelchair / scooter to get around.
