Whether moving patients across wards, down long corridors or through busy clinical areas, the Powered Drive Transport Chair turns a traditionally demanding task into a smooth, intuitive experience — protecting both staff and patients.
Traditional manual pushing is replaced by a light, guided control system that effortlessly propels the chair forward or in reverse, while a gentle pull brings it to a controlled stop. This touch-sensitive operation allows carers of all strengths and experience levels to move patients safely, consistently and with complete confidence, resulting in reduced manual-handling injuries, improved workflow efficiency and enhanced patient comfort during every transfer.
Patient transport is a breeze with our transport chair. It’s powerful central drive system and intuitive, touch-sensitive control make it exceptionally easy to use. The lightest push sends the chair forward; a gentle pull slows it down. Nimble yet strong, the chair turns on a dime while providing comfort and stability for larger patients. Carer strains are prevented as no physical effort is required – this chair does the work for you.
