What We Need
Patient Lift for Ambulation (1N)
$13,905 | New
Patients recovering from a stroke or injury like a broken pelvis usually can’t start their rehabilitation
until they’re medically approved for bearing weight – which may take up to 12 weeks! But with an
ambulation lift, they can support their own weight while doing physical therapy and begin rehab 4
weeks earlier. That leads to a faster recovery process.
1 North is home to the Regional Rehabilitation & Complex Care program, caring for patients from
across Simcoe Muskoka. Being able to admit patients to the program earlier in their recovery benefits
the patient, but also relieves an acute care bed for another patient in the region who needs it.
