About the Product

---

The Levigait allows you to safely lift more with less personnel, and it also is very easy to use. It was designed to fit on 90-600lbs, short to tall, and skinny to obese. The compact, versatile design eliminates the need for multiple or bulky devices. The Levigait's multiple handles promote excellent lifting form and reduces injuries. The placement of the handles also allows it to be used as a sling device. Its wide belt body won't "cut in" like other gait belts and stays where you position it due to the large patient contact area. The Levigait's easy decontamination regime is easy to follow!

The Levigait has been independently laboratory tested by Westpak Inc., for up to 1,250lbs. 

The following information is based on the research and injury statistics quoted by our current fire chief, Human Resources Department and the Idaho State Insurance Fund.

Since we began using the Levigait patient lifting system seven years ago, my department has not suffered a single neck, back or shoulder injury from patient lifting while using it. The Levigait patient lifting system has completely eliminated the most common and expensive workers compensation claims.

My fire department’s direct budgetary expenses for the average workers compensation lifting injury costs, on average, $32,000 per claim. This equates to an annual savings of $96,000 per year of in workers compensation claims. 

The Levigait system is being used in over 115 other EMS and Fire agencies without a single neck, back or shoulder injury, ever.
