Mover is a transfer platform developed to provide smooth, convenient transfer transfer indoor/at surfaces. It’s
easy to use and helps transfer patients safely and conveniently. Mover has a narrow base frame and double
castors for easy manoeuvrability even in conned spaces. Mover has a stable platform and comfortable seat
cushions, and thanks to constant eye contact with the carer, the user always feels comfortable and condent.
The new MoverAqua is specially designed to be used also in showers. PU cushions together with stainless
solutions makes this possible. Hygiene management is improved as well.
