The convenient tool-free folding design and compact size make Hoyer Advance Patient Lifts a valuable asset for home or institutional use. They can easily be moved from room to room for transferring patients in and out of beds, chairs, or on and off commodes. The swan neck leg design with adjustable width allows the Hoyer Advance Patient Lift to accommodate even large furniture for safer and easier patient transfer.
The legs can be adjusted with a pedal at the rear of the base which can be operated by foot - simply push down to open the legs, or lift up to close them. They can even be adjusted while the lift is in use and moving. A minimum height of 13.7 inches allows these lifts to transfer patients from the floor to a bed or chair easily. Both lifts are constructed of aluminum.
The triangular fold design ensures two very important functions. 1.) The lift stands unaided when being stored or transported. 2.) The lift can be safely left with the knowledge that it will not become unstable while not in use.
The push footpad on this lift reduces the force needed to operate it. It can be rotated from either side, and it has a progressive release valve and oversized handle for a smooth, controlled descent. The valve can be opened to a slow speed to allow caregivers a hands-free option, so they can assist patients as they are being lowered.
This lift includes a rechargeable battery and is operated with a corded hand-held remote. The battery can be charged in 4 hours.
