A Hoyer lifter, also known as a patient lift or hoist, is a medical device used to lift and transfer individuals with mobility impairments, such as those with spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, or stroke patients. It helps caregivers safely and comfortably move patients from one surface to another, like from a bed to a wheelchair or toilet.

The Hoyer lifter consists of:

1. A frame or boom
2. A sling or harness
3. A hydraulic or electric lifting mechanism

The sling is placed under the patient, and the lifter is positioned nearby. The caregiver then uses the lifter to slowly and carefully raise the patient, allowing for a safe transfer.

Hoyer lifters are commonly used in:

- Hospitals
- Nursing homes
- Rehabilitation centers
- Home care settings

They help reduce the risk of injury to both patients and caregivers, making transfers easier and safer.
