Its ingenious design makes it possible for one caregiver to transfer even a large client to and from chairs, wheelchairs, gait trainers and prone standers, or commodes – efficiently and with zero lifting.

A compact device with huge benefits:
- One caregiver, zero lifting, complete security – the SoloLift finally makes it a reality.
- Dramatically simplifies all types of transfers, even into a forward-loading gait trainer.
- Only the Rifton SoloLift transfers in a natural sit-to-stand arc, providing unprecedented comfort, stability and dignity.
- The unique Rifton SoloVest lifts entirely from above the waist, radically simplifying toileting.
- Accommodates any client – even those with no weight-bearing ability.
- The Rifton SoloLift can significantly reduce staff injuries and related insurance and turnover costs.
Features
 |
Lift Arm
The Rifton SoloLift's padded lift arm lifts from behind the client, so there's nothing looming overhead. For front-loading transfers, a push-button pivot mechanism turns the client 180° while supported upright, then latches for security. When not in use, the arm swings out of the way for safety. |
 |
Lifting Motion
The back of the SoloVest clips to the lifting arm, so the client is lifted in a natural nose-over-toes position. This comfortable arc-like motion mimics sit-to-stand positioning, making transfers more secure and dignified. The client can maintain eye contact with the caregiver and can hold the padded bar for added stability. For many transfers, the client's feet need never leave the ground. |
 |
Control
Easy-to-use controls Operate the SoloLift with simple buttons on the hand pendant. |
 |
Battery Zero assembly and long battery life From the moment it arrives, the SoloLift makes life easier for caregivers, clients and facility. No tools or assembly is required. And it comes with two long-lasting batteries (40 - 50 lifts per charge each) plus a wall charger. |
 |
Base and Frame
Compact and low-profile, the Rifton SoloLift can be stored in a small space and can pass through a standard 32" door with ease. An ergonomic foot pedal expands and retracts the frame legs for transfers to and from wheelchairs or gait trainers. And lockable casters make the SoloLift mobile, yet secure. |
 |
Leg Straps
The simplest of leg straps For seated transfers, the SoloLift's leg straps couldn't be simpler. Just grab the T-handle, thread the strap behind the client's knees from either direction, and hook it onto the large ball on the frame. It's quick, there's no pinching, and clothing remains easily accessible for toileting. |
 |
SoloVest
Innovative SoloVest The key to SoloLift's above-the-waist operation is the SoloVest. Available in small (70 to 150 lbs) or large (125 to 275 lbs). The SoloVest is made with medical-grade anti-microbial and anti-slip materials for durability, and complies with ISO10535:2006 and EN-12182 standards. |

Unique Lifting Action
The SoloLift lifting arm attaches to the SoloVest at the client's upper back, enabling a natural sit-to-stand motion and controlled, uniform pressure during transfer. Hook attachment draws the vest into a secure hug-like hold; the ample surface area of the vest assures patient comfort. |

Fits a variety of clients

 |
Simple straps and buckles
The SoloVest tightens with just two straps secured by automotive-grade snap-in buckles. |
 |
Hug-like security
The SoloVest is designed with a unique combination of segmented, contoured plastic shells and foam padding at the base of the vest. This innovative system gently, yet securely grips the client's torso during transfer, distributing pressure evenly for comfort and security. The soft upper portion of the vest guarantees comfort for all clients without inappropriate pressure. |
