Hoyer lift - $500
Sit-to- Stand - $200
The lift moves a person from bed to wheelchair, or commode. It's also extremely useful for lifting a disabled person, or dementia patient, who has fallen and can't get up.
The Sit-to-Stand is self-explanatory.
Most Hoyer lifts require electricity, usually a large rechargeable battery. This one is powered by a hydraulic pump. It does not require electricity, nor strength.
The Sit-to-Stand has never been used. It is NOT suitable for dementia patients, because it requires the mobility-challenged person to participate.
The Hoyer is suitable for people with dementia, quadraplegia, or both. You will use it every day to transfer your elderly parent/spouse, etc. It comes with a single sling. I will sell you an extra divided-leg sling (for toileting) for $20. They are washable. You will, in fact, wash them regularly. Perhaps daily, after each use.
Each of these devices is assembled, but can be disassembled. Your choice. The Sit-to-Stand would fir in the back of a van. The Hoyer, if not disassembled, would need to be transported in the back of a pick-up truck. (I do not have a pick-up truck. My neighbor's amiable son does. He's a college student.)
I also have a MAIDeSITe Electric Chair Lift, never used, still in box. Fortunately, I never had to use it. It's another device for lifting people who have fallen and can't get up, but probably not suitable for those with dementia. ($200)
