A Hoyer lift is a safe and efficient medical device designed to assist caregivers with safe patient transfers and handling. There are two main kinds of Patient Lifts: a manual lift, and an electric lift.
A Manual Hoyer Lift is the basic kind of lift; it features a hydraulic cylinder and a hand pump. These lifts are widely used because they provide a great value when a patient transfer needs to be performed occasionally, like in the case of a fall. Manual Hoyer lifts can aide in most basic transfers, such as transferring the patient from bed to a chair or commode and can also be used to lift a patient off the floor if they have fallen. Amica Medical Supply has Hoyer Lifts starting at $694.
An Electric Hoyer Lift uses a battery for power and a wand with controls, for ease of operation. These patient lifts are the best choice for daily home use as well as for facilities where patient transfers need to be performed frequently, as they eliminate the need to manually pump the cylinder. The electronic control provides an additional benefit of better control of the patient during the transfer, as the operator can use one hand to control the patient's positional while using the other hand to control the up/down operation of the lift via the hand pendant.
