CNN captures Ferno bariatric equipment in action

Take a look at this video broadcast on CNN in America. It features some of Ferno’s specialist bariatric equipment in action as ambulance crews and firefighters move a patient weighing 800lb in Florida.
You can see how our POWERFlexx trolley and Large Body Surface (LBS) Mattress makes the job easier and safer for everyone involved – both patient and the medical team.
Our POWERFlexx trolley  has been specially designed to meet the increased demand for transport management of bariatric patients. It will lift 318 kg at the touch of a button or transport up to 454 kg in the lowest transport height, significantly minimising the risk of associated lifting injuries to users. A wide wheel base and low centre of gravity provides great stability over all types of terrain.
The unique design of the LBS Mattress enables the width of the POWERFlexx trolley to be increased to 106cm for larger patients. It features folding wings for better manoeuvrability through doorways and tight walkways, whilst ensuring the patient is kept comfortable during transportation.
