The risk of sustaining injury can be greatly reduced by selecting appropriate equipment and by using it effectively. When choosing a mobile hoist, factors such as the environment in which it will be used – particularly space availability, floor surfaces and storage should be considered.

Description
Mobile hoists are designed to aid transfer, not for moving patients over distance. A Ceiling Mounted hoist is more appropriate in this situation.
