PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that there is no useful, simple and safe moving device for preventing lumbago resulting from such a care work that a care receiver is held and moved by a care giver frequently on a nursing care site.SOLUTION: A fork lift for nursing care is constituted as follows. A pair of right-and-left safety guards are provided on an existing industrial fork lift, to thereby prevent a care receiver from falling down from a chair for nursing care lifted with the care receiver seated thereon. Further, a scaffold base for placing both feet of the care receiver thereon is provided, to thereby remove such a risk that a foot tip of the care receiver may be caught into a gap between the chair and the floor surface, similarly as movement on a wheelchair. Consequently, movement care can be performed safely.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】介護現場において頻繁に介護者が被介護者を抱きかかえて移動させる介護作業に伴う腰痛を防止するための有用、簡便かつ安全な移動装置が存在しない点である。【解決手段】既存の産業用フォークリフトに、左右一対の安全ガードを設けて、被介護者が座ったまま持ち上げられた介護用椅子から転倒するのを防止し、更に被介護者の両足を置く足場台を設けて、車椅子での移動と同様に被介護者の足先が床面との間隙に挟まる危険性を除去して安全に移動介護を行えるように構成した。【選択図】図1
