Minstrel
Loop sling lifter for everyday transfer routines with dependent residents
Minstrel is the classic loop sling lifter for everyday transfer routines with dependent residents.
SimplicityEasy to understand and simple to operate.
Eye contact
The handset enables the caregiver to move and stay close to the resident and maintain good contact throughout the lift and transfer process.
Loop slings
Loop sling solutions are available in a wide range of designs and sizes.
Lifting from floor
With Minstrel, a single caregiver can move a resident who has fallen on the floor.
Electronic scale (option)
Minstrel is available with an optional scale that enables the caregiver to weigh the resident while performing a transfer.
Minstrel features and benefits
Chassis adjustmentThe chassis can be adjusted to allow access and manoeuvrability around large chairs, wheelchairs, beds and toilets.
Dual controls
Minstrel can be operated from the control panel on the mast or with the hand control, enabling the caregiver to stay close to the resident while operating the lifter.
Solid hanger bar
Solid hanger bar assembly designed to minimise swinging of the resident during the lift and transfer.
Low-friction castors
Castors designed to roll easily and enable the caregiver to manoeuvre during the transfer.
Scale (option)
Optional suspended scale supports an efficient weighing routine for dependent residents.
Designed for use in smaller facilities or at home, the compact Minstrel™ will lift residents/patients weighing up to 190 kg (419 lbs), but thanks to its large diameter, low friction castors, it is still easy to move and manoeuver.
