Evacuation HoverJack®

The Evacuation HoverJack® is HoverTech’s new specialty device for emergency stairwell evacuations. The Evacuation HoverJack® is designed for patients who cannot be evacuated using a bed mattress, making it ideal for the O.R. and patients on specialty air mattresses.  In the event of an emergency, the Evacuation HoverJack® device is fully inflated to bed or stretcher height so the patient can be laterally transferred onto it.  The specially designed safety straps and foot-end pouch hold the patient securely, while the Teflon-coated bottom surface allows for easy transport to the nearest stairwell.  The upper chambers can then be deflated for descent, as the attending caregivers slide the Evacuation HoverJack® and patient down the stairs to safety.
