A patient lifter and hoist, also known as a Hoyer lift, is used by caregivers to hoist patients with limited mobility and transport them from one place to another. Patient lifts and hoists are used for lifting morbidly obese patients or those with restricted mobility, often from a bed to a wheelchair, or to a toilet or a shower.
Patient lifters and hoists are assistive devices, often featuring a sling lift. They are powered either by hydraulic power or electricity. The sling is placed under the patient, which is then lifted upwards by a motor. Some are plugged in directly to the power source, while others are operated manually with a hydraulic pedal.
The main components of a patient lifter and hoist include the boom, which is the bar that extends over the patient, and the mast, which is the vertical bar that is firmly installed within the bar. Latches and clips are used to attach the spreader bar, which lifts the patient upwards.

Patient Hoist Buying Guide
Find and buy patient lifters and hoists from verified suppliers on MedicalSearch. Patient lifters and hoists are used to transfer patients comfortably without manual lifting.
Factors to consider when buying a patient lifter and hoist:
- Patient weight - The patient’s weight must be within the maximum weight capacity of the lift.
- Manual or electric - Manual lifts are good for home settings while the electric versions are more suitable for hospitals and other medical facilities. Make sure that the electric lift has an emergency control or manual override feature.
- Height and adjustment - Patients’ needs will determine the best height range of the lift.
- Portability - Some lifts can be folded for storage or transport.
- Slings and cradles - The compatibility of the sling and cradle will affect the stability of the patients and the ease of moving them in different positions. There are different types of sling:.
- Full- body sling - For very heavy patients who are partially or totally dependent.
- U-sling - Easy to fit for different purposes and types of patients.
- Toileting sling - Has a hole in the bottom that allows patients to access a toilet.
- Specialty lifts - For use beyond the basic:
- Heavy-duty - with adjustable legs for stability and weight capacity up to 1,000 pounds.
- Bath lift - Made from germ-resistant plastic and rust-free aluminium used to lower and raise patients into a bathtub<.

Patient Hoist
Patient Hoist
What is a patient hoist?
A patient hoist is a medical device used to lift and transfer patients who are unable to move themselves. It is designed to assist caregivers in safely moving patients from one location to another, such as from a bed to a wheelchair or from a wheelchair to a bath. Patient hoists come in various types, including manual, electric, and hydraulic, and can be used in hospitals, nursing homes, and home care settings. They are essential for providing safe and comfortable patient care while reducing the risk of injury to both patients and caregivers.
What are the different types of patient hoists available in Australia?
There are several types of patient hoists available in Australia, including:
- Ceiling hoists: These are fixed to the ceiling and can be operated with a remote control. They are suitable for patients who require frequent transfers.
- Mobile hoists: These are portable and can be moved from room to room. They are suitable for patients who require occasional transfers.
- Stand-up hoists: These are designed to help patients who are able to stand but require assistance to transfer from one place to another.
- Bath hoists: These are designed to help patients with limited mobility to get in and out of the bath.
- Pool hoists: These are designed to help patients with limited mobility to get in and out of a swimming pool.
- Stairlifts: These are designed to help patients with limited mobility to navigate stairs safely.
How do I choose the right patient hoist for my needs?
Choosing the right patient hoist depends on several factors, including the patient's weight and mobility, the type of transfer required, the environment in which it will be used, and the caregiver's physical abilities. Consider the weight capacity, lifting range, and maneuverability of the hoist, as well as the type of sling and attachments needed. It is also important to ensure the hoist is compatible with the patient's specific needs, such as those with limited mobility or pressure ulcers. Consulting with a healthcare professional or equipment specialist can help ensure the right hoist is chosen for the patient's needs.
What weight capacity should I look for in a patient hoist?
The weight capacity of a patient hoist should be determined by the weight of the heaviest patient that will be using it. It is important to choose a hoist with a weight capacity that exceeds the weight of the patient to ensure safety and avoid equipment failure. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or equipment specialist to determine the appropriate weight capacity for your specific needs.
What safety features should I consider when buying a patient hoist?
When buying a patient hoist, it is important to consider the following safety features:
- Weight capacity: Ensure that the hoist can support the weight of the patient.
- Stability: Look for a hoist with a wide base and sturdy construction to prevent tipping.
- Brakes: Check that the hoist has brakes to prevent it from rolling or moving unexpectedly.
- Sling compatibility: Ensure that the hoist is compatible with the sling you plan to use.
- Emergency stop button: Look for a hoist with an emergency stop button that can quickly stop the hoist in case of an emergency.
- Overload protection: Some hoists have overload protection that prevents the hoist from lifting too much weight.
- Battery backup: A battery backup can ensure that the hoist can still be used in case of a power outage.
- Height adjustment: Look for a hoist with height adjustment to ensure that the patient can be lifted safely and comfortably.
- User-friendly controls: Check that the hoist has easy-to-use controls that are simple to understand and operate.
