Wealden Rehab
Wealden Rehab has over 15 years’ experience in the design, installations and servicing of ceiling hoist systems. We also supply other fixed and mobile healthcare equipment which makes us a perfect partner for projects where whole system design is required.
We work in the community for local councils, for hospitals and schools, and are the first choice for many specialist architects and case managers whilst we are often assist OTs working for individuals with catastrophic injuries.
We are also specialist contractors working with the ‘Changing Places’ campaign in the UK and have completed many projects up and down the country.
We are proud to have been chosen as the UK distributor for the Golift hoist system. The GoLift is currently the smallest hoist unit in the world which makes it particularly desirable for those environments with low ceiling heights.
The GoLift achieves its class-leading dimensions by utilising PZ lift motors (from the automotive industry), nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, and metal gear-trains. This design allows even the smallest unit to lift up to 318kg (50st) effortlessly.
Our modular GoTrack system components allow us to design and install a wide selection of track layouts so that environments are covered in the most efficient way. 3 different track profiles, XY (room cover) trolley systems, curves, gates and turntables are all within our portfolio.
The GoLift has been designed to be easy to clean – no sharp corners or nooks, and weighs just 4.6kgs making it easy to install and service.
The GoLift has an innovative control system – the handset is designed with capacitive touch. Like a mobile phone, the handset is operated by buttons which react to touch rather than needing pressure. This enable those with limited dexterity to maintain independence by operating the lift and lower process. The handset is also equipped with a magnetic clip and allows the controller to be docked on the spreader bar for easy access during the transfer.
For an on-site evaluation of the GoLift, a no-obligation survey or a discussion about how we can help you then call us, email us or visit us!
