Emergency Lifting Cushions & Evacuation | Medaco

Falls are one of the biggest risks for older and less mobile people, and raising someone safely afterwards protects both them and their carers. Our range covers emergency lifting cushions to lift a fallen person, alongside evacuation equipment for moving people to safety in an emergency.

Emergency lifting cushions are lightweight, portable and compact, making them easy to use in any location. They are designed for assistance from a loved one, carer or emergency paramedics. If someone has fallen and can move into position, an emergency lifting chair or cushion is an ideal solution: with the touch of a button, the cushion inflates and gently raises the person to a seated position, ready for them to stand when they feel able.

An emergency lifting cushion is an inflatable lifting cushion that raises a fallen person from the floor to a seated position, so they can stand again when ready. Powered by an air compressor and operated with a simple hand control, most can be used by a single carer, reducing the risk of injury. The Mangar ELK is recommended by UK NHS Ambulance Trusts and lifts up to 450 kg, the Mangar Camel suits bariatric users up to 320 kg with a built-in backrest, and the Mangar Eagle is a compact home model that both sits a person up and lifts them.

For emergency evacuation, our equipment helps move people downstairs and to safety without heavy lifting. Evacuation chairs such as the Exitmaster Original and Exit Master Versa Plus glide down stairs and store neatly on a wall bracket in the stairwell. For users who cannot sit, the Evacuation Sledge and Evacuation Sheet let a person be moved through doorways and down stairs while lying down.

The right product depends on the situation. For falls, choose an inflatable lifting cushion sized to the user’s weight and the space available. For emergency egress, choose an evacuation chair for stairwells, or a sledge or sheet for users who cannot sit up. Our team can help you build a complete falls and evacuation plan for your setting.

Emergency lifting cushions are used in care homes, hospitals, Telecare and falls teams, emergency services and private homes. Evacuation chairs and sledges are essential for care homes, schools, offices and public buildings that need to move people with reduced mobility safely during a fire or other emergency.

Evacuation equipment helps you meet your duties under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Equality Act 2010, including personal emergency evacuation plans (PEEPs). Lifting cushions and evacuation equipment should be checked regularly and staff trained in their use, and Medaco can advise on servicing and maintenance agreements to keep equipment ready when it is needed.
