Frequently asked questions
Is the portable lift easy to maneuver?
The Joerns Hoyer Advance is engineered with specific features to maximize access and handling, but users should be aware of a known limitation regarding steering.
Features enhancing access and general movement:
- Easy Access: The base has a low profile (4.5 inches high) and swan neck style legs, enabling the unit to slide easily under beds, wheelchairs, and other furniture to ensure close proximity to the patient.
- Assisted Movement: It is equipped with a large, easily graspable handle and an intuitive push pad to help the caregiver initiate movement and transport the unit.
- Fine Positioning: An integrated footpad on the base allows for minor manual adjustments using your feet when fine-tuning the patient’s position.
