Guide to Choosing a Patient Lift
They are crucial in home care, easing transfers and daily activities while preventing injuries. Our selection includes both manual and battery-powered lifts, and a variety of slings, with additional options available upon request.
Manual: Operated entirely by the caregiver using hydraulic actuators, these lifts are cost-effective and suitable when access to power is limited. They are ideal for transferring patients between rooms.
Power: Powered by electricity or rechargeable batteries, these lifts use hand controls for effortless operation. Some models feature power bases for easier maneuverability. Manual backup is available in case of power failure.
Stand-Up: These lifts help users move from sitting to standing and vice versa. They are useful for gait training and leg strengthening but require the user to support at least 80% of their weight. Available in manual and power models, they assist with walking and using the commode.
Heavy Duty: Designed for weights from 400 to 700 lbs, these lifts offer the same features as power lifts but with higher weight capacities. Some models have swing-away arms for gait training and strength exercises.
