Hi.
Can anyone recommend a movable hoist to help someone stand up/transfer from bed, chair etc.
Also, anyone with experience, is there one where you can lift from an arm loop or something? The ones I have seen on YouTube videos seem to lift people in from a pad they are already sitting in (deck chair hammock kind of style)....which would not solve the problem of pad changes and washing.
Especially during these last few days I've had a problem with the dear deciding she suddenly can't stand up, it's getting more frequent.
Needless to say on these days it's become almost impossible to look after her. I've already strained my back a bit.
So it's hoist or bust time. Thanks.
