Invacare Birdie 180 – Advanced Mobile Lifting Solution
The Invacare Birdie 180 represents the next generation of patient lifting technology, combining advanced engineering with intuitive design to ensure safety, comfort, and ease of use. Building on the renowned Birdie range, the Birdie 180 has been enhanced through careful consideration of customer feedback, delivering features that both carers and service users value most, while introducing new innovations to further elevate the lifting experience.
Designed for versatility, the Birdie 180 is suitable for lifting and transferring patients from beds, chairs, or even the floor, making it an ideal solution in clinical, care home, or domestic settings. Its thoughtful design ensures maximum safety and comfort for the user, while offering carers the flexibility and control they need to perform transfers confidently and efficiently.
Exceptional Lifting Capability
One of the standout features of the Birdie 180 is its extensive lifting range, which allows for smooth and controlled transfers. The lift arm can rotate a full 360 degrees, giving carers complete freedom to position the patient without awkward manoeuvres or repositioning. This rotation capability ensures that lifts can be performed safely, even in tight spaces, reducing strain on both the carer and the user.
The Birdie 180 also features a high boom design, providing ample space for the service user even at the maximum lifting height. This extra clearance reduces the risk of knees or limbs coming into contact with the actuator, enhancing comfort and safety during every transfer. The thoughtful design ensures that both small and larger users can be accommodated without compromising stability or ease of use.
User-Centered Design and Convenience
The Birdie 180 has been engineered with the carer’s workflow in mind. Its intuitive folding mechanism allows for rapid setup and storage without the need for any tools. This makes it ideal for environments where space is limited or where lifts need to be performed in multiple rooms. The mast can also be easily detached from the base when required, further improving portability and simplifying transportation or storage.
Every element of the Birdie 180 has been designed to make lifting as straightforward and safe as possible. The stable base, smooth-operating wheels, and ergonomic handles ensure that carers can maintain optimal control throughout the lifting process, while the service user benefits from a secure, comfortable experience. The combination of high-quality construction and user-focused design makes the Birdie 180 a reliable and long-lasting solution for patient handling.
Enhanced Comfort and Safety
The comfort and security of the user are central to the Birdie 180’s design philosophy. The high boom, carefully positioned actuator, and smooth lifting action ensure that users are supported in a natural, stable position throughout the transfer. Safety mechanisms are integrated into every function, reducing the risk of accidental movement and giving carers peace of mind.
In addition, the Birdie 180’s quiet, precise operation helps create a calm and reassuring experience for users, which is particularly important for those who may feel anxious or vulnerable during transfers. This focus on comfort and dignity ensures that lifting is not only efficient but also compassionate.
