Danish patient transfer manufacturer Ergolet, which has U.S. offices in Minneapolis, has hired Marsha Medlin as director of medical products. Medlin, an RN with a Masters of Public Administration, has experience in caregiver safety, serving previously in management positions for several hospitals and with her own company focusing on safe lifting. According to Medlin, "We have too many people getting injured while caring for others. We need to teach nurses and caregivers at home that in order for them to be available for their patients or loved ones, they need to take care of themselves by avoiding lifting injuries."
