Mackworth Essentials Turner

Detailed product description

The Mackworth Essentials Patient Turner is a compact aid to assist carers when turning or repositioning someone from one seated position to another. It uses a 360° rotating turntable for smooth manoeuvring and offers a controlled and dignified transfer so the user feels secure throughout the movement. The unit is intended for people who can stand with support and have moderate arm and leg strength, making it suitable for many everyday care situations.

The turner has a height-adjustable knee pad and adjustable handlebars so you can set it to the most comfortable working height for both carer and user. A non-slip tread base helps keep the user steady while the base wheels and 75 mm castors let you reposition the unit easily between users or rooms. Despite its practical features, the unit remains lightweight at 14 kg, which helps when moving it around the home.

Assembly is straightforward and no tools are required for assembly, so the turner can be ready to use quickly. Check the maximum user weight of 160 kg before use and keep the unit close to the person for the safest transfer. As with any patient-handling aid, it is best used by someone who can offer support and supervision during transfers.
