Able Innovations is developing fully automated patient transfer technology to reduce labour and injury costs and improve efficiency, dignity, and quality of life for clients and caregivers alike. Our autonomous and intelligent transfer devices will be able to lift and transfer humans in a safe, efficient, and dignified manner, with zero physical effort required from caregivers. By performing safe and effortless automated transfers, our technology will help to reduce the $30 billion annual financial burden to healthcare facilities that result from the high injury rates and labour expenditure resulting from the inefficient, unsafe, and outdated patient transfer devices in use today. Our first product, the DELTA Platform, will leverage our unique transfer method to perform automated lateral transfers in hospitals and other healthcare facilities, allowing these facilities to save millions on injury costs and optimize their labour resources to achieve the greatest clinical and social outcomes for their clients. Using this same core transfer technology, we plan to develop intelligent and robust mobility devices for long-term care and homecare use, which will enable individuals with impaired mobility to live their lives with a hereto unprecedented level of dignity and independence.
