Patient Positioning Systems | PPS Lift | Air-Assisted Bariatric Patient Lift (Up to 1,200 lbs) for Safe Floor-to-Bed Transfers
At Alto Med Supply, we offer the Patient Positioning Systems PPS Lift, a high-capacity air-assisted patient lift designed to safely raise individuals weighing up to 1,200 lbs from the floor to bed or stretcher height in a supine position.
Ideal for hospitals, emergency responders, and long-term care settings, this bariatric patient lift uses a single-point inflation system for fast, efficient setup, helping reduce the number of caregivers required while minimizing the risk of strain or injury during patient handling.
Its compact design makes it especially useful in tight spaces or situations where traditional lifts are not practical.
Engineered with advanced pneumatic technology, the PPS Lift operates as a controlled air-powered jacking system and is UL 60601 certified, meeting rigorous medical safety standards.
It delivers a smooth, stable, and comfortable lifting experience for patients while promoting safer, more efficient workflows for caregivers.
For added versatility, the PPS Lift is fully compatible with the PPS Glide lateral transfer device, allowing both systems to share the same air supply for seamless transfers between surfaces.
This integrated solution helps improve patient safety, comfort, and overall handling efficiency in demanding care environments.

Outdoor Wheelchair for Recreation
I bought this wheelchair to be used outside to help me get to and from our pool and hot tub. It works great.

Great Service. Good Purchase.
I think that I received the Rollz Electric a day or two after ordering. Great service!
First outing was an overnight at Disneyland. As with all wheelchairs, this chair will take some getting used to. As my husband's caregiver, I use the electric drive-assist function as I push the chair. It definitely makes pushing easier. There is a learning curve. Whenever you take your hand off the chair handles for 5 seconds, you get an error message and have to reset to continue. This could be improved. The back wheels are (naturally) wider than the non-electric Rollz Motion chair, and that takes getting used to maneuvering through doorways and tight spaces. We are having a Surelift 88 installed in the back of our Prius because at around 60 lbs, the Rollz Electric is too heavy for me to lift. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase.

Outstanding product and service by office liaison Jean
The Nano lift arrived in excellent condition. We were impressed with the quality of engineering and manufacturing that went into this product ( I had a metal fabricating shop so I can appreciate quality and precision).My friends, an electrician and carpenter and I installed it in less than a day. I would like to point out that the installation instructions were poor and could use much improvement. We had to refer to the bar code for special videos on many items. Many of these referenced the Hercules lift and not the Nano. My thanks to your office liaison JEAN who did an outstanding job getting us thru the purchase and transport issues we had.THANK YOU JEAN. Yours truly Fred Roesslein
