6 reasons why the Multifit LegLifter is a caregiver's best friend

If your elderly client is looking for more independence at home, the Multifit LegLifter is a must-have. The Multifit LegLifter is an appliance designed to boost independence for the elderly and disabled while making patient movement and management easier for health professionals. 

This innovative lifter can help those who cannot lift their legs move from a seated position onto the bed. Depending on the patient’s level of disability, they can get in and out of bed safely with little to no assistance from another person. 

But that’s not all the Multifit LegLifter can do. There is a wide range of benefits to this product — here are six reasons why you should invest in a Multifit LegLifter for your patient or elderly relative.

#1. It’s easy to use

With simple push-button commands, the Multifit LegLifter gently carries the legs from the side of the bed to the prone position on the bed surface, then returns the leg-rest to its bedside position.

It also has a refined profile for beds that are lower to the ground. This is ideal for shorter people or those who have diminished balance and mobility.

#2. It’s smooth and silent

If your patient or relative needs to get up in the middle of the night, the Multifit LegLifter won’t wake up the rest of the house/facility. With precision-engineered componentry and robust construction, the Multifit LegLifter ensures quiet performance and safe, gentle operation.

Those midnight snacks and toilet breaks don’t have to be a noisy affair!

#3. Adaptable for various domestic bed designs

The LegLifter Mk3L is designed to be installed in typical domestic innerspring, slat or frame beds. It is adjustable to suit preferred seating heights from 300mm to 700mm. 

Adaptations to fit profiling beds can be supplied on request. Get in touch with our team on 02 9649 2111 for more information about custom installation.

#4. Installs in minutes

One of the major benefits of the Multilift LegLifter is its quick and easy installation.

Installation for domestic beds and various profiling beds takes around five to ten minutes. Allen-key tools are also supplied for easy assembly or disassembly if you need to take the lifter somewhere new.

#5. Compact, portable and slim

The compact dimensions and 9-kilogram weight makes the LegLifter Mk3L easy to carry and transport — even in a small vehicle. The slim profile of the installed unit also fits close beside the bed when not in operation.

#6. High performance and durability

The Multifit LegLifter Mk3L has been durability tested successfully to 10,000 cycles. This lifter will go the distance and ensure getting in and out of bed is simple and safe for years to come.

Specifying and ordering the Multifit LegLifter for individual requirements

The unique Multifit LegLifter design lends itself to many types of bed frame styles, both domestic and profiling, to suit access from either side of the bed. 

It also utilises a slim, strong stabiliser that fits under the mattress to ensure sturdy installation and smooth operation. It is equipped for fitting to innerspring, frame, slat and box bed bases. 

Some profiling bed frames may require custom-designed fittings to suit the type and width of the bed frame. When making enquiries or ordering your Multifit Leglifter, we ask that you please specify:

• The domestic frame type and width or the profiling bed’s brand and model
• Access preference from the left or right side of the bed
  
  We also offer a wider, interchangeable leg rest to suit patients with swollen or heavy legs. This is an optional add-on — ask our team about custom leg rests, configurations and more at sales@activemobility.com.au.
