Lifting the Patient
6.3 Lifting Information
WARNING!
Only personnel who have received training
regarding the use of lifting equipment and fitting
of slings should use the hoist.
– Plan the move. Avoid leaving the client in the
sling unattended.
– The ceiling hoist lifts quickly. Before lifting,
check that the client is completely free of
his/her surroundings.
– The patient’s body parts must not be in danger
of becoming trapped.
– Check that the red emergency strap, hand
control and hand control cable are free of the
lifting straps, client and other objects before
the ceiling hoist is activated and moved up or
down.
– When the ceiling hoist is used correctly, the
client should only be lifted to the extent that
she/he is clear of the surface and should be
moved at this height.
