Here is a great letter written to Ann & Isy about the RWHN container 'goods' that we have sent....We should be very proud of what we have done in South Africa and around the world.
 
Sister Genevieve has been a real pleasure to help. She is so enthusiastic and energetic.
 
Thanks very much for your everyone’s  support. Your containers help the needy so much!!

Dear Mr Russell and Mr Mills
 
These are some photos taken to show how a lifter can be used.
* patient has been lifted from the bed, ready to be pushed to bathroom.
* patient on lifter over bath, ready to be lowered into water (as I said, our bath has to be adjusted, in order to be able to get lifter-legs under bath)
* patient can be pushed into our shower cubicle, left on lifter-seat and showered, then returned to bed after wash, shower and drying patient on lifter-seat.
It could be most useful, if lifter-seat could be lowered onto floor (or nearly) in case a patient falls onto the floor. This would greatly assist us, in getting patient back to bed, if no facture is obvious. However, the the lowest position of chair is chair height. May be for future models!
 
Ever grateful for this gift and all the effort you went through to ship it to us and store lifter till we fetched it from your R. Warehouse.
Kind regards
Sister Genevieve Walthers
