Rifton said the TRAM is designed to allow a caregiver to assist a patient with seated transfers with no under-body sling, which is ideal for toileting; sit-to-stand lifts and supported ambulation.
“We wanted to create a device durable enough to handle a wide range of patient sizes and capabilities in an institutional setting yet small enough to permit easy maneuvers in the home,” said Kirk Wareham, Rifton’s operations manager, in the release.
Rifton Equipment is headquartered in Rifton, N.Y.
