NURSING HOMES
Since 1993, American Medical Equipment (AME) has been recognized
as a leading provider of medical products and clinical services for patients
care in Nursing Homes.

& Negative Pressure Wound Terapy (NPWT), Bariatric, and Patient
Safety. AME is driven by a pioneering spirit, constantly looking for the

And we understand the importance of eliminating employee injury by
providing the proper equipment for patient mobility.
Te number and severity of injuries resulting from physical demands in nursing homes to workers -- and associated
costs -- can be substantially reduced by having the proper equipment in place. Providing an alternative to manual
resident lifting is the primary goal of the ergonomics process in the nursing home setting. OSHA recommends that
manual lifting of residents be minimized in all cases and eliminated when feasible. OSHA further recommends
that employers develop a process for systematically addressing ergonomics issues in their facilities, and incorporate
this process into an overall program to recognize and prevent occupational safety and health hazards.
