Patient Lifters & Hoists in Senegal
Available Patient Lifters & Hoists Models

Patient lifters and hoists are sophisticated electro-mechanical devices designed to safely and efficiently transfer patients who have limited mobility or are unable to bear their own weight. These systems, often referred to as assistive transfer devices, utilize a lifting mechanism, a sling, and a powered base to elevate and move individuals between surfaces such as beds, wheelchairs, toilets, or stretchers. Their primary function is to reduce the physical strain on caregivers and minimize the risk of injury to both the patient and the healthcare provider during transfers. In Senegal's healthcare landscape, where patient care demands efficiency and safety, patient lifters and hoists are becoming indispensable tools.

In Senegal's diverse healthcare landscape, patient lifters and hoists are essential tools for ensuring safe and dignified patient handling across a spectrum of facilities. These devices significantly reduce the risk of injury to both patients and caregivers, particularly when dealing with individuals who have mobility challenges due to illness, injury, or age.

Our commitment to providing advanced patient care solutions in Senegal extends beyond the sale of our high-quality patient lifters and hoists. We understand that proper installation is crucial for safety, functionality, and longevity. Our dedicated team ensures a seamless and professional installation process tailored to your facility's specific needs.

Site Preparation:

Before delivery and installation, we collaborate with your facility's maintenance and management teams to ensure the environment is optimally prepared. This includes:

• Assessing Installation Space: We'll help identify the most suitable and safe locations for the lifter or hoist, considering patient room layouts, doorways, and overall accessibility.

• Structural Integrity Checks: For ceiling-mounted systems, our technicians will verify the structural capacity of the ceiling or wall to safely support the weight and dynamic loads of the equipment. We can advise on any necessary reinforcement if required.

• Power and Electrical Requirements: We confirm that adequate and appropriately grounded electrical outlets are available and accessible for charging and operation.

• Clearance and Obstructions: Ensuring sufficient clearance around the intended installation area for smooth operation and maneuverability of the lifter/hoist and its accessories.

Delivery And Unpacking:

Our logistics team ensures your patient lifter or hoist is delivered securely and on time to your Senegalese healthcare facility. Upon arrival, our certified technicians will:

• Careful Unpacking: Components are meticulously unpacked to prevent any damage during transit or the initial setup phase.

• Inventory Verification: We cross-reference all delivered items against the order to ensure completeness and accuracy.

• Component Inspection: A thorough visual inspection of all parts is conducted for any signs of damage incurred during shipping.

Installation Steps:

Our trained and experienced technicians follow a rigorous, multi-step process to ensure a safe and effective installation:

• Assembly of Components: Following manufacturer guidelines and best practices, all parts of the patient lifter or hoist are expertly assembled.

• Mounting and Securing: For fixed systems (e.g., ceiling tracks), secure mounting to reinforced structural points is prioritized. Mobile units will be assembled and checked for stability and smooth rolling.

• Connection of Power and Controls: Electrical connections are made safely, and control systems are integrated into the unit.

• Attachment of Accessories: Slings, charging stations, and any other specified accessories are attached and confirmed to be correctly fitted.

Calibration And Testing:

Once physically installed, the critical phase of calibration and testing begins to guarantee optimal performance and safety:

• Weight Capacity Calibration: The lifter's or hoist's weight sensing and limit systems are calibrated to accurately reflect the maximum safe working load (SWL).

• Operational Functionality Tests: All movement functions (lifting, lowering, traversing for ceiling systems) are tested extensively to ensure smooth, consistent, and responsive operation.

• Safety Feature Verification: Emergency stop buttons, anti-rollback mechanisms, and other safety features are rigorously tested to confirm their immediate and effective response.

• Battery and Charging System Check: For battery-powered units, the charging system is tested, and battery performance is assessed to ensure reliable operation.

• User Familiarization: Our technicians provide a brief overview and demonstration of the lifter/hoist's operation and basic safety protocols to your designated staff, answering any initial questions.

Upon successful completion of these steps, a final sign-off is obtained, confirming that your patient lifter or hoist is fully operational, calibrated, and ready for use, ensuring the highest standards of patient safety and care within your Senegalese healthcare setting.

The cost of patient lifters and hoists in Senegal can vary significantly, depending on factors such as the type of equipment, its capacity, brand reputation, specific features, and the supplier. Generally, you can expect to find a range of options to suit different budgetary needs and clinical requirements. Basic manual lifters may fall at the lower end of the price spectrum, while more advanced electric models with specialized slings and integrated weighing systems will command a higher investment.

For a general idea, entry-level manual patient lifters might start in the range of 200,000 to 450,000 CFA francs. Mid-range electric patient lifters, offering greater ease of use and convenience, typically fall between 450,000 and 900,000 CFA francs. High-end, feature-rich electric hoists with advanced safety mechanisms and higher weight capacities can be priced from 900,000 CFA francs upwards, potentially reaching over 1,500,000 CFA francs for specialized or premium models.
