OpeMed (Europe) Ltd Ceiling hoists (also
known as overhead hoists or ceiling track hoists) save time, provide dignity,
reduce risk of injury, provide better positioning, free up space and reduce
the number of carers involved.
OT200 Ceiling Hoist - Unique Features
The award winning OT200 Ceiling Hoist is a cost effective, flexible solution
that can be installed in virtually any setting.
-
Automatically recharges when in use - no more flat
batteries
-
Full range of track and accessories - we can install in
virtually any scenerio
-
Free no obligation surveys and CAD drawings
-
Quick and safe emergency lower, without tools or physical
intervention
-
Easy and cost effective servicing, often without having to
take the motor off the rail
Automatic Recharging - Hybrid Solution
The OT200 Ceiling Track Hoist automatically recharges itself eliminating the
risk of the carer forgetting to return the hoist to the charging point. In
addition it gives double the battery life of any other ceiling hoist, as well as
reducing your servicing costs and your environmental footprint.
 Inbuilt
Diagnostics
The inbuilt diagnostics read how often it has been used, adjust the speed up and
down as well as along the track and has fault finding if there is ever a
problem.
The OT200 Ceiling Hoist has a unique emergency lowering system, that unlike its
competitors does not require tools or add-ons, it simply bypasses the
electronics and performs a safe and quick emergency lowering at the press of a
button.
Options include a powered tilting spreader bar, a power-along-the-rail system
(so the hoist is always charged), portable ceiling hoist and a weighscale.
Full Range of Track and Layouts
 The OT200 has a wide range of track and accessories to allow the ceiling hoist
to be installed in virtually any setting. Our options include room covering
systems (also known as xy systems) that can connect up to a neighbouring room
with a gate system, tight curves for small bathrooms and a flexible turntable
allowing our specifiers to give you a real benefit to the carer and user.

Westholme Ltd
 Westholme provides
safe, reliable and effective hoisting solutions for carers and
patients who can no longer safely manage a manually assisted
transfer.
A wide range of hoisting systems are available to suit many
different environments and situations; from mobile floor hoists,
floor mounted gantry hoist systems through to fixed installation
ceiling track hoist systems.
A ceiling track hoist enables a carer to lift and transfer a patient
from one location to another. It is simple, unrestricted, friendly,
and easy to use. The hoist runs on a static ceiling track which is
customised to your requirements and installed by the Westholme
Survey and Installation departments. All Westholme Ceiling Track
hoists are manufactured to BS EN10535 standards. The hoist is
powered by an on board battery pack and is charged at an in-line
power point. A major benefit to implementing a ceiling track hoist
is that because it is at ceiling level, it is unobtrusive and does
not require storage, making it ideal for areas with limited space.

Integra
 A
unique design in hoists? The Integralifter™ looks just like furniture. It also
overcomes the problem of fitting track to a ceiling that may need strengening or
not be suitable at all. Although it doesn't have the flexibility of a single
track from bed to bathroom it would be a unique solution where only one lift
point is required i.e. where there is a roll in shower. Renowned Scandinavian
elegance in the design. The unit can be supplied in various colours and finishes
along with additional matching furniture.
We are based in Oslo, Norway.

Freeway Healthcare
A ceiling track hoist is quick and easy to use, and is
never in the way, and always where you need it. Because of this
constant availability, it is more likely to be used by carers
than a mobile hoist, which may not be to hand immediately when
it is required.
Positioning a person is easier with a ceiling track hoist.
It eliminates the risk of back injury for carers when performing
a transfer and requires minimum effort to operate . As in most
cases it can be operated by one person, there is much closer
contact between the user and the carer and can be more dignified
in use than other solutions. A person is more easily positioned
using the ceiling track hoist, as they can be raised lowered
turned and traversed with no physical effort from the carer.
It does not take up floor space and is therefore often
suitable for use in restricted areas or toilets/small bathrooms
where a mobile hoist might be difficult to manoeuvre. It does
not have ‘traffic’ problems in moving and is not affected by
different levels of floor or rucks in carpets.
It can lift higher and lower than a mobile hoist: the
same hoist can be used for floor to chair transfer, chair to
shower stretcher, raised bath, or bed.
Ceiling Track hoists are very well received by persons being
lifted in them, who generally feel secure as they experience
no sudden movement. The Freeway has a ‘soft start’ as a standard
feature, which means that the hoist gradually builds up to its
full speed and virtually eliminates jerking.

Lift System
As a simple, portable overhead lift unit that does not compromise on safety

carriage, and Multirall becomes readily portable. In addition, it
enables room-to-room transfers with only one lift unit.
A practical trolley for transfer and storage is available as an
accessory.

Advent Medical Equipment
is a new service driven business founded by Andy Haines who has some 20
years' experience in manufacture, service and sales of hoists and other
equipment. Starting from just £25 for a LOLER test on a mobile hoist,
pricing is deliberately keen to allow all users to access the wealth of time
serviced experience that we have.
I am pleased to be able to eek out a niche in the market, and at the same
time offer services to individuals and organisations alike that are
necessary but not always easily accessible - no pun intended! I can offer
equipment sourcing, and original equipment manufacturers components often
direct from the component manufacturer, making them more affordable. The
service is available in the midlands and south west/south/mid Wales
Other services on offer are wet rooms, free standing shower cubicles which
can be sited anywhere, ramp systems and building modifications such as
kitchens and extended ramp systems.
We are also able to offer installation services for second user hoists
subject to survey and inspection of the hoist.

 Lisclare
has been providing moving and handling solutions throughout the UK and
Ireland for over 10 years.
Room-to-room transfers, such as from bedroom to bathroom, are easily
achieved using the
Roomer™ 5200 Cassette Unit.
The user is transferred in a controlled, comfortable & safe manner through a
standard door opening without the need for mechanical gate systems or
modifications to the room structure.
The Roomer cassette is suspended from one of two belts, only one of which is
ever lifting / lowering. To traverse between rooms:
1) Bring the cassette to the centre of the doorway.
2) Connect the “free” tape to the track you wish to traverse to.
3) Rotate the drive switch through 180 degrees
4) Press & hold the “up” button (The manoeuvre can be paused at any time)
5) Listen for the original tape clicking free
6) Remove the original lift tape from the original track - The transfer is
complete - The total time is around 3-5 seconds!
 There
is no requirement for an inter-linking section of rail between adjacent
rooms when our Roomer cassette is utilised. The person being lifted is
transferred horizontally between the two rooms, safely, smoothly and
efficiently. This has several advantages in that the door headers can be
installed as per any “standard” installation and the need for specialist
“full height” doors is negated with additional cost and time savings.
Additionally, because we do not use an interlinking track section between
rooms, the fire/smoke integrity of the rooms is not compromised unlike most
other overhead systems currently available- the advantages are therefore
obvious.
Simple and cost effective installation
No structural modification to the door or doorway is required
Variations in ceiling height is not an obstacle
One cassette unit serves multiple rooms
No need for turntables
Smoke boundary integrity is NOT compromised
Our unique spreader bar also has 3 settings; small, standard & bariatric,
which enables clients of different sizes to be lifted using the same
cassette.
