What Is a Patient Lift?

A patient lift, also known as a Hoyer lift, is a lifting mechanism that uses a sling or harness that surrounds the user to lift them safely and effectively. At WCM, we have the best patient lifts; it's one of the safest ways to transfer patients, making them essential in hospitals, nursing facilities, and dialysis centers. These lifts are especially useful for patients with fractures or who require careful handling, as they allow for slow, controlled lifting and lowering, reducing the risk of complications during recovery.
