Your Complete Range of Mobile Patient Lifts

 

 

 

 

 

 

MINI 140 and STOWAWAY 140
The Oxford Mini 140 and Stowaway 140 folding hoist have been developed especially with the domestic care environment and patient in mind.  These compact but highly durable lifters offer superb manoevrability round the confines of both domestic and nursing settings.  Both hoists offer an excellent range of minimum and maximum lift heights, as well as having durable low profile front castors for that important lift from bed or chair.

Both are available in electric or hydraulic versions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stowaway 140  Folded for easy storage

MIDI 170

The Oxford Midi 170 has become the versatile industry standard in homecare, offering surprising performance for a hoist of its size.  The Oxford Midi offers the perfect solution for the community/nursing environment, whilst being sympathetic to the space constraints it may encounter. Available in both electric and hydraulic versions, the Midi is the all-round performer.

The Oxford Major 190 is a true heavyweight contender and is the perfect cross-over product for both nursing and institutional care.  Its high lifting capacity (190 kgs SWL) and lightweight design allow the Major to work well in almost all settings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MAXI 170

 

The Oxford Maxi 170 is exceptionally versatile and with a maximum lift height from the floor of almost 2 metres, the Maxi can cope with almost any patient handling task.  The Maxi can lift patients onto almost all institutional and nursing surfaces. Remarkably, the Maxi maintains a relatively compact frame allowing the hoist to be manoevred and stored with ease.  170 kgs SWL

Leg opening device

The Oxford Standaid 140 (140 kgs SWL) has a revolutionary patented design that enables patients to be quickly and efficiently transferred.

Unlike conventional passive sling lifters, the Standaid requires the patient to participate with the lift/transfer which clearly encourages the patient to remain active for as long as possible.

The Standaid hoist easily transfers patients from bed to chair or from chair to commode in a fraction of the time required for a conventional sling lifter. It is also a very useful rehabilitation tool.

The Standaid also provides an extremely secure and comfortable lift for those patients who have the upper body strength to participate.  This is primarily due to the natural sitting position achieved by the lift mechanism and sling.

Whether from the floor or onto a high surface, the Presence has an astonishing range of movement.

The minimum height with the six-point spreader bar is just 440mm, which ensures excellent off the floor transfers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conversely, if you wish to access high beds or nursing surfaces, the Presence will lift up to 1910mm.

This is especially useful where you have variable height beds, special lift mattresses and other high surfaces.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Interchangeable Spreader Bar/Cradle

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One of the restrictions of using certain lifts is the slings which you can use on the product.  The Presence, however gives you a choice of sling systems.

You can either use the conventional (A) six-point Oxford spreader bar or the newly developed (B) four-point positioning cradle.  This choice provides the carer with a greater option of slings to use when considering support, comfort and flexibility for the patient.

Portable Telescopic Bathing Hoist  New Product

 

 

A simple, portable, and compact solution to moving patients from a wheelchair into a shower, bath, or onto the toilet.

Equally useful for transferring from bed to chair or wheelchair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The telescopic post stands on a solid floor plate and a similar plate is jacked up against the ceiling, both to help spread the load, and to prevent lateral movement.

Note.  Only suitable for concrete ceilings or where the hoist is braced under a strong ceiling joist.  A full risk assessment must be carried out before installing the hoist to ensure that the ceiling and floor are strong enough to support the load.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The arise is specifically designed for quick, simple and safe transfers.  Unlike using conventional passive lifting devices, the Arise gives support by using a range of active slings. This encourages the patient to participate during the lifting process.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The active style of transfer is proven to keep patients partially lift-bearing for longer. Slings are simple to fit, and provide excellent access and support for the following tasks.

bulletToiletting
bulletStanding
bulletWalking/Rehab
bulletQuick Transfers

The Arise is a highly adaptable lifting device and is capable of transferring a patient from a low seated position to fully extended, with its unrivalled range of movement

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Removable Foot Tray

Removing the foot tray transforms the Arise into a walking aid which can facilitate rehabilitation and training.  With the foot tray removed, you can fully raise a patient to the standing position.  You can then remove the arise, allowing the patient to walk.

 

 

 

 

 

The Arise is packed with useful features such as:

Adjustable Knee Pad

The knee pad is adjustable by 6" for added flexibility.  This ensures the patient feels comfortable and fully supported during the lifting process. The pad is moulded for additional support and there is a leg restraint for patients needing additional reassurance.

This ingenious design takes up the least possible space and is particularly valuable in areas where normal portable hoists cannot be moved around.

The hoist is tested to a safe working load up to 130kg (20.5 stone) and can be installed by one person.  This product is available for sale or hire.

STATURE HOIST  227kg/36 Stone

 

 

This flagship product recognises the true needs of the modern care environment.  With a massive safe working load of 227kg/500lb/36stone, and one of the largest lifting ranges (390mm-1550mm) the Stature is able to cope with even the most demanding and technical of patient handling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The 4-point positioning cradle enables the carer to position the patient perfectly, simply by rotating the cradle (and patient) into a fully seated or reclined orientation. This flexibility ensures the patient is comfortably transferred and requires little or no repositioning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sling Safety

The unique sling attachment ensures that no inadvertent detachment can occur once the sling clip has been attached to the cradle. This guarantees that each transfer will be achieved safely and efficiently - 100% of the time.

Interchangeable Spreader Bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You have the option to choose whichever cradle or spreader-bar configuration best suits the needs of the care environment and patient alike.  With a wide selection of slings and attachments available, you can be sure to get the right combination, each and every time.
