Responding to a non-injurious fall safely and with dignity is a major challenge for community response teams, care staff, and paramedics. The Mangar range of inflatable emergency lifting cushions, including the renowned ELK and Camel models, provides a powerful and portable solution. They enable a single carer to lift a fallen person from the floor while minimising the risks associated with manual handling, protecting both staff and the individual.

The Camel lifting cushion for a single-handed lift of a fallen patient up to 320 kg. Inflatable design with backrest provides a secure, dignified lift.
The Mangar Swift Transfer Slide (SPU) is engineered to enhance infection control while ensuring safe and efficient patient transfers. Designed for single-patient use, these slides eliminate the risk of cross-contamination, making them ideal for high-turnover environments like hospitals and outpatient clinics. The SPU Swift allows caregivers to reposition or transfer supine patients with minimal physical effort, reducing strain and improving workplace safety.
Sold in a convenient pack of ten, the SPU Swift provides a stable and secure experience for the patient during lateral movement. When used with an air supply, such as the Mangar Airflo Duo, it inflates rapidly to create a comfortable cushion for transferring patients across a flat surface or from a lifting cushion to a bed. This disposable solution is a cornerstone of modern, safe patient handling protocols.
