Lifts are amazing tools that enable heavy patients to be transferred without risking caregiver or patient injury. Hoyer lifts in particular offer particular comfort and ease. As with any piece of equipment, however, old, worn, and broken parts must be replaced. Hoyer lifts usually come with a warranty, but the warranty often depends on the type of lift purchased, when it was purchased, and even specific parts on the machine. No matter what your warranty is for your Hoyer lift, it is vital that you thoroughly inspect the machine for any signs of wear, loosening parts, or broken/breaking parts. Below is a list of Hoyer lift parts that are available to purchase, ensuring your patients are safe and comfortable.
What Hoyer Lift Parts Do You Need To Operate It?
Batteries
Every lift will need a battery to charge it. Luckily, batteries and battery chargers are available for purchase and most Hoyer lift batteries will work for every machine model. Additionally, it might be beneficial to purchase extra batteries for your lift in case you need a quick replacement.
Digital Scales
Though digital scales are an optional part to add to your Hoyer lift, they are extremely useful. Digital scales save caregivers and staff time and energy by weighing patients while moving them. This way caregivers don’t have to weight the patient as an additional task.
Model-Specific Parts
Though batteries and digital scales are general parts that every Hoyer lift needs, every model is slightly different and thus requires a different range of parts. To find model-specific Hoyer lift parts, check out the list below.
