Frequently Asked Questions About Heavy Duty Patient Lifts

A patient lift (also called Hoyer lift) is a mechanical device that safely transfers patients who cannot support their own weight. It lifts and moves people between bed, wheelchair, toilet, or bath, reducing injury risk for both patient and caregiver.
Yes, patient lifts are covered under ADP for eligible Ontario residents. Both portable floor lifts and ceiling track systems qualify for funding up to 75%. We help with assessments and all ADP paperwork.
Yes, we rent patient lifts including slings and offer delivery throughout Toronto and the GTA. Rentals are ideal for post-surgery recovery, respite care, or temporary mobility needs.
Floor lifts (Hoyer lifts) are portable and can move between rooms. Ceiling lifts are permanently installed on a track system, offering smoother transfers with less physical effort. Ceiling lifts are ideal for frequent transfers and can cover bathroom to bedroom.
Sling selection depends on the transfer type and patient needs. Universal slings work for most transfers. Toileting slings allow bathroom use. Bathing slings are mesh for water drainage. We assess your needs and recommend the right sling style and size.
Standard patient lifts have a capacity of 400-450 lbs. Bariatric lifts are available with capacities up to 700-1000 lbs. Always choose a lift rated above the patients weight for safety. We help you select the appropriate capacity.
Yes, modern patient lifts are designed for single-caregiver operation. Electric lifts do the heavy lifting with a button press. However, some facilities require two-person lifts for safety protocols. Proper training is essential for safe operation.
Yes, we install ceiling track lift systems in homes throughout Toronto and the GTA. Installation includes the track, motor, sling, and training. We can install straight tracks, curved tracks, and multi-room systems depending on your home layout.

A Hoyer lift (floor lift) is portable and moves on wheels - good for occasional transfers and multiple rooms. A ceiling lift is permanently installed on a track system - smoother transfers with less caregiver effort, ideal for frequent daily transfers. Ceiling lifts can connect bathroom to bedroom.
No, ADP has no income testing. All Ontario residents with a valid health card and qualifying disability are eligible regardless of income. The program covers 75% of the cost for all qualifying applicants.
ADP has usage periods for each equipment type. For example, wheelchairs have a 5-year usage period, walkers 5 years, and hospital beds vary. After the usage period, you may qualify for replacement if there is continued medical need.
Yes, you can choose features beyond what ADP covers and pay the difference. For example, ADP may cover a basic power wheelchair, but you can upgrade to a model with more features. You pay 25% of the approved amount plus any upgrade costs.
You need: 1) Ontario Health Card, 2) Prescription from your physician stating medical need, 3) Assessment from an authorized ADP vendor like Mobility Specialties. We guide you through gathering all required documentation.
