Patient handling equipment refers to devices and tools developed to assist healthcare professionals in safely and efficiently moving and transferring patients. These essential tools are vital for ensuring the comfort and well-being of patients while minimizing the risk of injury to patients and healthcare workers. Some commonly known patient handling equipment includes patient lifts, transfer boards, and gait belts. For instance, patient lifts are mechanical devices that help lift and transfer patients from beds to wheelchairs or other surfaces, reducing the strain on healthcare workers' backs and minimizing the risk of patient falls. Additionally, transfer boards provide a smooth surface for patients to slide from one surface to another, while gait belts support patients during walking or standing. As a result, patient-handling equipment enhances patient care and aligns with safety standards.
