Why care homes use this

Mobile hoists are essential for transfers in rooms not equipped with ceiling track, or for emergency use. The Oxford Presence is the most widely specified mobile hoist in UK care homes because its base geometry and SWL balance manoeuvrability against resident weight. Annual LOLER thorough examination is required; most care homes contract this to their equipment supplier or an independent LOLER inspector.
