Patient Lifters & Hoists in Kenya
Available Patient Lifters & Hoists Models

Patient lifters, also known as patient hoists or lifting aids, are essential medical devices designed to safely and efficiently transfer individuals who have limited mobility or are unable to stand or walk independently. These devices are crucial in healthcare settings across Kenya, from hospitals and long-term care facilities to home healthcare environments, ensuring the dignity and safety of patients while significantly reducing the risk of injury for caregivers.

The primary function of a patient lifter and hoist is to mechanically lift and move a person from one surface to another. This typically involves a powered lifting mechanism, often driven by hydraulics or electricity, that raises the patient via a sling. The hoist then allows for controlled movement of the patient, whether it's transferring them from a bed to a wheelchair, from a chair to a commode, or repositioning them within a bed. This automation eliminates the need for manual lifting, which can be physically demanding and pose a high risk of musculoskeletal injuries to healthcare professionals and family members.

In Kenya's diverse healthcare landscape, patient lifters and hoists are indispensable tools across a wide spectrum of facilities and departments. Their ability to safely and efficiently transfer patients significantly reduces the risk of injury for both caregivers and those requiring assistance. From large, specialized medical centres to smaller community health facilities, the need for these essential devices is growing as the focus on patient dignity, staff well-being, and advanced care delivery intensifies.

We understand that proper setup is crucial for both patient well-being and caregiver efficiency.

The cost of patient lifters and hoists in Kenya can vary significantly based on factors such as the type of lifter (manual, electric, bariatric), brand reputation, specific features, and the supplier. Generally, you can expect a wide range to accommodate different budgets and needs. For basic manual patient lifters, prices typically start from around KES 40,000 and can go up to KES 90,000 or more for more robust or specialized models. Electric patient hoists, offering greater convenience and ease of use, will command a higher price point, generally ranging from KES 150,000 to KES 350,000, with advanced models or those designed for higher weight capacities potentially exceeding this. It's crucial to get detailed quotes from multiple reputable medical equipment suppliers across Kenya to compare offerings and ensure you are getting the best value for your specific requirements.
