Description
Our ICON Lifter 200 ceiling hoist provides the most innovative way of transfer with care for nursing staff. Ensuring excellent personal contact, the two-strap design offers comfort and efficiency in a safe patient-handling environment. Without the need for a spreader bar, a secure and dignified transfer with a client of up to 200kg can be achieved in combination with a ceiling track.
Ceiling track hoists
A ceiling track hoist is usually fitted directly onto a ceiling above the area required. If a ceiling cannot support the user’s weight, then the weight can be transferred down the walls into the floor by using particular support legs fitted flat against the walls. The system comprises the rail and the cassette (the assisted transfer itself). Ceiling track hoists are generally wired into the main supply and are constantly charged. Room to room: We can install a ceiling track hoist covering multiple rooms with clever junction plates and track selectors. Some hoists can also be linked to separate tracks, which can be used with transfer straps, which allow track switching. The ceiling track hoist can be removed quickly, and all that is left are a few mounting holes that can be quickly filled and painted over.
Mobile or portable hoists
These are small, mobile devices that can lift someone from a chair to a bed, from a bed to a commode. All mobile-assisted transfer devices for disabled people have been developed, especially for the domestic care environment and the patient in mind. However, they can be an issue for carers and loved ones as they require the operator’s ability to push and manoeuvre.
