A portable hoist unit is a ceiling-mounted lifting device designed to be easily detached and moved between compatible track systems. It allows safe patient transfers across multiple rooms or locations without the need to install a separate hoist in each space.
The AirRise200-P features a detachable design that enables it to be removed from the ceiling track and relocated as required. This makes it ideal for shared use in care homes, hospitals, and rehabilitation facilities where flexibility is essential.
Yes. When used with compatible ceiling track systems and installed correctly, a portable hoist unit offers the same level of safety, lifting performance, and compliance as a fixed ceiling hoist. The AirRise200-P includes emergency stop and lowering functions for added reassurance.
Portable hoist units are well-suited to environments where multiple rooms require patient lifting, but usage varies. They are commonly used in care homes, hospital wards, and therapy areas to maximise equipment efficiency without compromising patient comfort or dignity.
The AirRise200-P is designed to work with compatible ceiling track systems. A professional assessment is recommended to confirm compatibility and ensure safe operation across different locations.
The AirRise200-P is compact and lightweight, making it straightforward for trained staff to detach, transport, and reattach between rooms. This helps reduce handling time while supporting efficient workflows.
Maintenance requirements are the same as fixed ceiling hoists. Regular inspections and annual servicing are recommended to ensure the portable hoist unit remains safe, reliable, and compliant with regulations.
