ABSTRACT:
An apparatus to assist in the lifting of a patient. The apparatus has an inflatable body in two parts. A first part raises an upper part of the patient and a second part inclines the lower part of the patient. There is an envelope extending longitudinally from one side of the first part and laterally remote from the first part. In this way a sequential lifting of the patient can be achieved. First by lifting the upper part and secondly by gently tipping the legs, lower part or torso of the patient outwardly.
