World Leaders in Patient Transfer and Repositioning Systems
Almost two million U.S. workers experience injuries related to overexertion or repetitive motion each year. One third of those require time off work to recover. Healthcare providers that are involved in patient handling tasks have one of the highest incident rates of MusculoSkeletal injuries in the U.S.
HoverTech International is committed to providing to the healthcare industry cost-effective, safe, and efficient patient handling solutions.

HoverTech International offers a complete portfolio of patient transfer, repositioning and handling products to integrate an entire lift-free environment in any facility.
HoverMatt® Single-Patient Use Mattress:
The #1 choice of hospitals for lateral patient transfers is now available in a disposable option. Just like the reusable HoverMatt® transfer mattress, the
Single-Patient Use HoverMatt® transer mattress is ideal for use in any patient care department.
HoverMatt® Air Transfer Mattress:
Our HoverMatt® is a lateral transfer and repositioning device designed to eliminate injury to staff while performing these tasks. The HoverMatt® transfer mattress will also provide comfort to the patient. The HoverMatt® transfer mattresses are available in four sizes: 28", 34", 39", 50" and five different styles: sewn, heat-sealed, double-coated, half matts and the HoverMaxx™.
The Heat-Sealed HoverMatt® is the new generation of the HoverMatt® Mattress. Designed to address infection control concerns by eliminating the needle holes and sew lines.
Double-Coated HoverMatts® are the regular HoverMatt manufactured with a double-coated fabric on the topside. This fabric is completely water-repellent and stain resistant. It is especially useful in the OR, Labor & Delivery, etc. where there are excessive body fluids.
Half Matts are being manufactured for specialty procedures such as cystology, labor and delivery, and other gynecological procedures. They are available in the same widths as the HoverMatts, but measure 45" long, ending just beneath the buttocks.
The HoverMaxx™ Transfer System is a variation of the HoverMatt® mattress. The HoverMaxx™ has a quilted, zippered cover made of fusion material. The cover extends over the sides of the inflated transfer mattress. It is intended for use with a convertible chair.
The HoverCart is designed to hold the air supply in its top basket and the HoverMatt® mattresses in the lower basket. The cart can be used for storage and transportation of the HoverMatt® System.
The Hover Bag: One of our clients purchased HoverMatts® to keep with each of their transport stretchers. For convenience, availability and storage purposes, they asked us to make a bag to keep with the stretcher. Made of 'lectrolite, the bags are large enough to hold a matt, hose and cord. It attaches to the frame of the stretcher, at the foot end with Velcro straps and a hook closes and secures it.
The HoverJack™: The HoverJack™ is an ingenious invention that stacks "hovermatt-type mattresses" upon each other. It inflates from the floor upward to the height of a stretcher or bed. With the actual HoverMatt on top the inflated HoverJack, the ultimate product for lifting a patient from the floor and then moving them laterally onto a bed or stretcher surface is achieved.
*Patent Pending.
The HoverJack™ Cart is designed to hold the air supply in its top basket and the HoverJack™ Patient Lift in the lower basket. The cart can be used for storage and transportation of the HoverJack™ Lift.
The Safety Slide™ is designed for evacuation of immobile, bed-ridden patients. The Safety Slide is designed for staff to move a patient, on their bed mattress, to safety in an emergency.
*Patent Pending
The Morgue Solution: HoverTech International has developed a Morgue Solution to protect hospital employees from injury when lifting and storing cadavers in the morgue. The solution utilizes two major devices: an overhead lift and a drawer system. Rather than storing the body on stationary shelves, the Morgue Solution utilizes a drawer glide system for shelving so that the body can be placed on any of the pullout shelves from the middle of the morgue. It is very easy to use and to maintain, and no one from the hospital to the funeral home has to manually lift a body again.

Guaranteed Injury Reduction Safety Program: The HoverTech Safety Program provides an analysis of the current status of a facility regarding incident/injury due to lateral transfer and repositioning tasks and recommends a program that is designed to improve outcomes. The program includes a free hospital assessment, review of OSHA 300 logs and insurance loss runs. After the necessary information is compiled, the HoverTech consultants will design a Safety Program for the facility. When fully implemented, the program will significantly reduce Workers Comp costs and injuries. HoverTech International will guarantee the Safety Program results.
