  It’s all about people. The people who count most in the Ergolet culture are those using our products every day, many times a day, to manage life.
An example is Vicie (pronounced “viki”) Motz of Greenville, Tenn. Her 12-year-old son Trevor is a fragile young man. A cerebral palsy sufferer, Trevor has two dislocated hips so he can’t be carried, even by someone able to manually lift his 83-pound frame. Motz says there is no way she can transfer Trevor to the bathroom by carrying him, even if she has a nurse to help. “When we installed an Ergolet lift, it made a world of difference,” Motz says.   Sometimes, you’ve got to knock on Congress’ doors to get things done.
Ergolet’s Director of Medical Products Marsha Medlin has been doing just that. She is a leader in a national push for federal legislation that protects the health of nurses, attendants and other healthcare workers who handle patients and residents. The Coalition for Healthcare Worker and Patient Safety (CHAPS) was formed by a small group, including Medlin, to support HR2381 – The Nurse and Health Care Worker Protection Act of 2009.   As Medtrade 2009 quickly approaches, Ergolet is preparing to make dealers “an offer they can’t refuse”. In support of their distribution growth efforts, Ergolet is offering new dealers an outstanding 20% discount off dealer pricing on their first order placed.
Sam Rosen, Director of Sales and Marketing for Ergolet America shares, “the growth of our dealer distribution network is key to Ergolet’s goal of becoming the top choice in patient lifting solutions. We strive to offer dealers the complete package; great products, revenue growth potential and fantastic service and support. We are looking to form lasting partnerships – this promotion is just one example of how we’re willing to make sure our partnerships are mutually beneficial.” To learn more about this offer and to become an Ergolet distributor, please click here.  While overhead lifting is recommended for individuals who are immobilized, there is significant need at home and in medical institutions for lifting applications to support the individual who is still mobile, but has a difficult time standing. Stella, by Ergolet, fills this need by emulating the natural sit-to-stand motion with a mechanical lift.
 The major Danish show was held at the Fredericia exhibition centre this year with Ergolet showing the complete range of products on a 700 sq. ft. stand. This major exhibition alternates between Copenhagen and Fredericia to accommodate the community needs of the Danish geographical regions. The exhibition was attended by approximately 8,000 people over three days with many of the key decision makers attending. “We were very pleased with the amount of interest and excitement Ergolet generated at this show,” shares Joe Evans, Ergolet’s Export and Marketing Manager.
