“From the start, it’s always been about prioritizing staff and patient safety,” said Andrew Heuerman, CEO of The Patient Company. “Our team is deeply committed to supporting both patient outcomes and staff well-being with our fully automated patient transfer device, the SimPull. Being awarded a Technology Breakthrough Designation by Premier, Inc. is an incredible honor and a testament to the impact our technology is making across the healthcare industry.”
The SimPull is the first fully automated patient transfer device, engineered to eliminate the physical strain of patient lifting, reduce injury risk, improve workflow efficiency, and significantly cut down on disposable waste. The device performs lateral patient transfers, transfers from supine to sitting, and patient repositioning or boosting, making it a versatile tool in any clinical environment. The SimPull works by attaching to the sheet that the patient is lying on and completing a fully automated, device-powered transfer that requires only two staff members. The 25-second transfer time is consistent and regulated, simultaneously prioritizing patient dignity, peace of mind, and safety. The SimPull has undergone both a pilot study at Sparrow Specialty Hospital and a study at Corewell Health, and has successfully been delivered to healthcare facilities across the U.S.
Premier is a leading technology-driven healthcare improvement company, providing solutions to two-thirds of all healthcare providers in the U.S. Playing a critical role in the rapidly evolving healthcare industry, Premier unites providers, suppliers, payers and policymakers to make healthcare better with national scale, smarter with actionable intelligence and faster with novel technologies. With integrated data and analytics, collaboratives, supply chain solutions, consulting and other services, Premier enables better care and outcomes at a lower cost.
