Patient Handling

Patient Handling Equipment Inspection and Certification is a legal requirement see Schedule 1 (Requirement Of Work Equipment) contact LHS for more information.

LHS Services inspect, certify and repair all makes and models of patient handling equipment. We also carry out product and accident investigation on the equipment where the user is unhappy with the supplier/manufacturer due to constant repairs or issues with the hoisting units. As more people are requiring the use of ceiling and mobile equipment to help them live independently, they need the supports to ensure there equipment is safe to use and they have backup systems in case their device has problems. LHS Services, with the support of the best manufacturer of patient lift and care systems (Handimove) provides an excellent design, supply and hire service to independent users and long term care facilities including sports facilities.
