Request a QuoteThe 'Gold Standard' in Homecare. The Oxford Midi 180 has become the lift of choice in homecare, offering surprising performance for a hoist of its size. The Midi electric hoist is very sympathetic to the space constraints it may encounter, making this Oxford Classic lift the perfect solution for both community and nursing environments.
Compact and Versatile Mobile Hoist. The Oxford Mini 140 hoist has been developed especially with the homecare environment in mind. This compact but durable Oxford Classic lift offers superb manoeuvrability in settings where space comes at a premium.
Outstanding Performance and Lift Range. With a maximum lift height from the floor of almost two metres, the Oxford Maxi 180 can lift patients onto almost any acute or nursing surface. Remarkably, the Oxford Classic lift maintains a relatively compact frame (equivalent to the Oxford Major), allowing the hoist to be manoeuvred and stored with relative ease.
Passive Lift — Compact and Incredibly Capable. The Oxford Advance folding mobile patient lift is one of the most functional and stylish in its class. It is ideally suited to homecare and small nursing institutions where space sometimes is simply not available. This compact hoist is able to get closer in and around furniture thanks to its angular leg design. It can assist with many lifting and transfer requirements as it adapts well to a variety of settings, including transferring patients from the floor, a bed, a wheelchair, or a toilet. It will also fit into the trunk of most family saloon vehicles, making it ideal for taking on vacations or day trips.
Passive Lift — Outstanding Performance and Lift Range. The Oxford Presence Professional lift is a heavy-duty mobile patient hoist, competent enough to handle most patient lifting and transfer needs. It has an incredible range of motion, which ensures critical and high-level surface transfers are carried out with relative ease. This durable hoist is designed to offer comfort and versatility during use.
Active Stand-Aid — Compact, Portable and Innovative. The Oxford Journey Professional patient lift is an ultra-compact, portable folding stand aid with best-in-class functionality. Its unique adjustable cow-horn mechanism supports a wider range of patient heights and sizes allowing your facility to have one stand aid that meets the needs of many. The Journey's small footprint and lightweight design makes it easy for caregivers to manoeuvre in small areas. It also allows users the freedom to venture outside the confines of their homes, making it easier to travel or pay visits to friends and relatives.
Active Stand-Aid — Safe and Efficient Standing, Transfers and Rehabilitation. Introducing the Oxford Up, an evolution in manual mobility assistance. Designed with precision, this device stands out for its unique design, offering unparalleled support for individuals needing help with standing. It's more than a stand-assist and transfer device; it's a pathway to rehabilitation and independence. The Up is perfect for those who are able to contribute effort to the process of standing. It fosters active participation, making it an invaluable tool in rehabilitation after injury or surgery and for bringing independence to daily routines. This Oxford Professional Series product is non-powered and unlike other manual stand assist devices, quickly disassembles to aid transportation and storage.
Passive Sling — Fully Padded Sling for Toileting Needs. The Oxford Access Padded sling is designed to facilitate the toileting process, allowing excellent access to clothing. It is an easy-to-fit sling however patients must be carefully assessed for suitability prior to use.
A full range of slings is also available — please contact us for the complete catalogue.
Request a QuoteCommon questions about our hoists, stand-aids and slings.
Passive lifts (like the Oxford Advance and Presence) are used to fully lift and transfer a patient who cannot bear their own weight, typically using a sling. Active stand-aids (like the Oxford Journey and Up) are designed for patients who can bear some weight and benefit from assistance to stand and transfer over short distances.
The right hoist depends on the patient's weight, mobility, the available space, and the type of transfers required. Our team can advise — for compact homecare environments the Oxford Mini 140 or Advance are popular, while the Maxi 180 and Presence are better suited to nursing or acute settings where higher lift ranges or weight capacities are needed.
