Alerta ALT-ST002 Patient Standing Turner Transfer Platform
The Alerta ALT-ST002 Patient Standing Turner Transfer Platform is a safe and reliable transfer option for individuals with impaired mobility, allowing them to move from different surfaces with minimal risk of injury and discomfort. It's also a great option for carers overseeing several patients, as it eliminates the often-strenuous aspect of patient transfers. For optimal user comfort, the height of the handles and kneepads can be adjusted to meet their exact proportions.
What's Included?
Please note: This device is not designed to transport users. When in use, the whole footplate should remain in contact with the ground at all times. Do not tilt or raise the turner off the floor.
How Does the Standing Turner Work?
The Alerta Standing Patient Turner is designed to assist attendants when transferring patients and loved ones from one surface to another. Ideal for sitting to standing transfers, this device encourages users with limited mobility to regain their independence over daily activities, and ensures carers can reposition patients safely without added strain on themselves.
Its design includes a GlideTurn easy-swivel base which can rotate 360° for convenient positioning in front of chairs, toilets and beds. It also features height-adjustable handles and kneepads, allowing users to adjust the turner to their exact proportions for optimal comfort and stability during use.

Ideal for use by individuals with reduced lower body strength due to illnesses or injuries, this device is recommended for a number of environments. They include (but aren't limited to):
- Hospitals

For carers monitoring the wellbeing of multiple patients, this device is finished with two rear castor wheels for easy manoeuvrability.

How Does the Alerta Transfer Platform Benefit Carers?
While this is an excellent way for individuals with limited mobility to regain their independence, the transfer turner is equally ideal for caregivers. Rotating a full 360° with kneepads and handles for stability, this standing turner eliminates the manual aspect patient transfers for carers, which can often be strenuous - especially if caring for more than one patient.
Adjustable Design for User Comfort
Designed to accommodate users of varying heights, the Alerta Standing Turner is crafted with height-adjustable handles and kneepads. This is to ensure patients are positioned safely and securely on the turner, so that each transfer is as comfortable as possible.
