Hoyer Lift Manufactured by Drive Medical |
Physicians, dentists, ophthalmologists, podiatrists, and any other medical professionals. Listen up. Architects too. My message is for you.
Medical accessibility for all
Physicians, If you want us up on your exam table,. have a Hoyer Lift in your. office to make our transfers safe and stable.
Medical accessibility for all.
Do not expect our caregivers, relatives, or friends to lift us onto the table. It's not their job. Their job is to offer us support. Not lift us. It's your job to have the necessary provisions in place. Hospitals also need to have Hoyer Lifts. One on every patient floor.
Medical accessibility for all.
Permit me to list what needs to be fixed.
Your exam rooms are small. with narrow doorways.
Our manual/powerchairs are big.
We need room to move around to get in the right spot.
Make sure all of the machines used for the running of various tests are accessible.
Medical accessibility for all.
Some of us have lifts that were used when we got them.
Some lifts being used are so old that no one will repair them.
Yet insurance won't approve a new lift.
The same for a hospital bed.
No matter how old, if it still works,
It's good enough.
Medical accessibility for all.
Good medical care.
Good equipment.
We deserve it.
We demand it.
Do not cut costs at our expense.
Medical accessibility for all.
