Oxford Presence Hoist – Bariatric Electric Mobile Patient Lifter
The Oxford Presence Hoist is a premium-grade bariatric mobile hoist designed to provide exceptional strength, safety, and versatility in patient handling. With a remarkable safe working load of 227 kg (35 stone), the Presence accommodates a wide range of patients, making it ideal for hospitals, long-term care facilities, and bariatric care environments. Every aspect of its design is focused on delivering comfort to the patient while reducing physical strain and enhancing safety for carers.
Engineered to meet the demands of complex patient transfers, the Presence Hoist offers a superior lifting range, enabling smooth and controlled transfers from the floor, beds, chairs, or high surfaces such as examination tables or bath units. The low-profile, wide chassis ensures excellent stability during lifting while remaining compatible with standard furniture and fittings, allowing the hoist to manoeuvre efficiently in tight or cluttered spaces.
Bariatric Capability and Safe Working Load
With a safe working load of 227 kg, the Oxford Presence Hoist is suitable for both bariatric and non-bariatric patients. This capability provides carers with confidence when handling heavier patients, reducing risk of strain and ensuring compliance with health and safety standards. The robust construction and high-quality materials guarantee reliability, durability, and long-term performance in demanding clinical environments.
Electric Leg Adjustment and Intuitive Control
The Presence Hoist is equipped with electric leg adjustment controlled via an intuitive handset, allowing carers to easily widen or narrow the base for positioning around furniture, beds, and other equipment. This feature reduces manual effort, enhances safety, and ensures precise placement of the hoist before and during transfers. The handset also provides controlled lifting and lowering, giving carers complete confidence in every operation.
The combination of electric leg adjustment and handheld control makes the Oxford Presence Hoist highly adaptable, allowing carers to respond efficiently to patient needs and varying environmental constraints. This user-centered design ensures that both patients and carers benefit from a safer, smoother, and more comfortable transfer experience.
Smart Monitor System
The Presence Hoist is equipped with the Smart Monitor diagnostic system, which records essential service and usage data. This includes lift cycles, battery performance, and overload warnings, supporting proactive maintenance and compliance with care standards. By monitoring usage trends, healthcare facilities can optimise service planning and ensure that hoist performance remains safe and reliable over time.
Patient Comfort and Sling Compatibility
Compatible with a wide range of Oxford loop slings, the Presence Hoist provides exceptional comfort and security for patients. These slings support a variety of transfer positions, helping to maintain correct posture and reduce discomfort during lifting. Whether used for routine transfers or more complex patient handling, the hoist’s design ensures that patient dignity and safety are prioritised at all times.
With its low-profile chassis, the Presence can easily fit under beds, chairs, and baths, giving carers flexibility to operate in confined spaces. Smooth, controlled lifting combined with reliable stability ensures transfers are gentle and safe, even for bariatric users.
Powered by Rechargeable Battery
The hoist is powered by a high-capacity rechargeable battery, supplied with a charger and wall bracket for convenient charging. The battery provides sufficient cycles to support multiple daily lifts, ensuring reliability in high-demand care environments. This feature also enables continuous operation without interruption, reducing delays and improving workflow efficiency for carers.
