A new way to transfer - a client uses the SoloLift with a caregiver.

Fits a variety of clients
Available in small (green), medium (light blue) or large (dark blue), the SoloVest can be comfortably used by most clients - even those with no weight-bearing ability. The SoloVest accommodates both female and male clients. See the Dimensions page for details.

Above-the-waist lifting
The innovatively designed SoloVest is the key to the SoloLift's above the waist operation. With no straps below the waist, there's no lifting or wrestling required to prepare the client for transfer, and clothing remains easily accessible for toileting. In fact, transfers to a commode or toilet are faster and more dignified than ever.

Soft under the arms
Foam padding ensures comfort and skin protection around the client’s arms and upper torso.

The innovative SoloVest hooks to the SoloLift hook arm at the client’s upper back.

Unique lifting action
The SoloLift lifting arm attaches to the SoloVest at the client's upper back, enabling a natural sit-to-stand motion and controlled, uniform pressure during transfer. Hook attachment draws the vest into a secure hug-like hold; the ample surface area of the vest assures patient comfort.

High-quality components
The exterior of the SoloVest is made with tough 420 Denier nylon fabric. The interior fabric is anti-slip, medical grade material, which complies with ISO10535:2006 and EN-12182 standards.

Hug-like security
The SoloVest’s contoured plastic shells and soft padding grip the client's torso gently, yet securely during transfer. Pressure is distributed evenly for comfort and security, and the vest is fully cushioned.
