Weighing a client who cannot stand usually means a second piece of equipment and a second transfer. This Maxi Twin build has the scale integrated into the hoist, so the weight is captured during a transfer that was happening anyway.
That is worth having where weight is being tracked clinically: nutrition and hydration monitoring, medication dosing, wound and oedema management, and palliative care. It also has the Powered Dynamic Positioning System, which repositions and tilts the client in the sling under power, so finishing a transfer into a chair or a bed does not come down to the carer’s arms.
The Maxi Twin is a full passive hoist, suited to clients with no weight bearing capacity who need sling transfers between bed, chair, shower commode and the floor. The open base clears most chairs and wheelchairs, and it is driven from a single handset.
