Everything You Need to Know about Ceiling Hoists

A ceiling hoists is one of the most effective and secure ways to lift and move people in a care or rehabilitation setting. Mounting all of your lifting equipment on the ceiling means that you won’t have to take up floor space with conventional stands and other tools. At the same time, because the hoist takes on most of the weight of the people it is lifting, there’s minimal risk to the care provider. Rather than calling multiple people to move a patient, care facilities can easily transfer residents from one environment to another with just one care professional present. 

It’s well-documented that using a correctly-fitted ceiling hoist can reduce the risk of over-exertion, strain, and injury in moving and handling processes. This means better comfort for patients and individuals, as well as better job satisfaction for care providers. 

Of course, you’ll need the right ceiling lift system and sling to get started.
