1 . 1 Intended Use
The ceiling track hoist is a raising and lowering aid used to transfer people safely and is designed to be used in
combination with a ceiling track and slings, together these three items make up the ceiling track hoist system.
The hoist makes it possible to move mobility impaired individuals with minimal strain or risk to the caregiver,
while providing complete safety, dignity and comfort for the person being moved. It can raise up an individual
from one location, such as a bed, move the individual along the track to another location and finally lower the
individual, such as into a chair or a bath. The hoist is designed for internal use only. No other environments are
suitable.
The ceiling hoist is designed to be operated by both professional health care workers and home health care
workers who may not have a specific range of skills in health care. Typical home care users may include, but is
not limited to, teachers, medics, paramedics, carers, family, and friends. Focusing on the dignity and wellbeing
of the person being moved, the simple to use hoist maximises the amount of care provided to the person.
You may need to seek a specialist advice on how to assist some people with specific moving and handling
needs. Sources of advice include, but is not limited to, professional bodies and organisations, occupational
therapists, physiotherapists, manual handling advisers and ergonomists with experience in health and social
care.
