ALTA Platform™: Safety Reimagined
If you are reading this, you are probably all too familiar with the myriad of problems associated with the highly routine task of transfers. This physically-intensive task exposes nurses and caregivers to chronic, and often career-ending injuries. Staff are often very busy and over-worked - the coordination to transfer further adds to staff burden, and is a source of inefficiency.
At Able, we are re-imagining how transfers are conducted. We believe that:
-
Nurses should be able to provide care without "breaking their backs"
-
The patient must feel secure and dignified - even in a vulnerable state
-
The status quo is unsustainable
-
Any viable solution must simplify workflows
The ALTA Platform™ is a ground-breaking technology that allows a single caregiver to conduct effortless transfers.

The Status Quo of Transfers
-
Majority of transfers today are conducted by manual methods
-
Manual methods require multiple staff to exert back breaking effort
-
At UnityPoint Health, 10 nurses injure themselves transferring patients every year
-
Transfers require finding and waiting for 2+ staff - not sustainable with staff scarcity
-
Staff often take on additional risk, attempt to transfer without help, and are injured
-
Lifts, swings and lateral pull solutions require additional steps for caregivers
-
Patients find conventional methods to be highly undignified
