The MediDisk TurnTable was the first medical turning aid invented by Colin Morritt. This free-moving, lightweight stand-on turntable is ideal for individuals who need assistance to turn when making a transfer. The MediDisk turns a full 360 degrees in any direction, making it suitable for a variety of transfer situations. By placing a foot on the flexible rim, a carer can control the rotation of the turntable, leaving hands free to assist the user. The MediDisk is superior to other devices, providing the smoothest possible turning movement through its twin ball race system which gives it the maximum patient weight rating, and reduces the risk of injury to both carer and user. This is just one of the range of independent living aid products from Polymorit. The integrated carrying handle of the MediDisk TurnTable also makes this an easily transportable transfer aid. Benefits Reduces patient movement during transfers Easily controlled by carer Smooth turning motion = greater degree of balance for user Suitable for transfers both inside and outside MediDisk does not require any servicing or greasing Features Made from durable and lightweight ABS plastic Easily portable Has an integral carrying handle Effective braking system Rubber pads on underside to prevent slipping User Instructions Place the MediDisk in a suitable position on the floor, allowing the user to position both feet evenly on the turntable. The carer then places their foot gently on the flexible rim of the MediDisk, to act as a brake. The user places both feet firmly and evenly onto the turntable and, with the assistance of the carer, raises to a standing position. The carer then gently releases the brake, guiding the patient round to the desired position. The carer then activates the brake again, and the patient can then be assisted to the chair/ bed/ toilet etc. Dimensions Diameter 381mm (15″) Maximum user weight 115 kg (18 stone) Product Weight Less than 1kg
