Portable & Folding Patient Lift FAQs
What is a portable patient lift?
A portable patient lift is designed for easy transport and storage, allowing caregivers to assist with patient transfers at home, in a vehicle, or while traveling.
What is the difference between a Car Transfer Lift and a Take-a-Long Folding patient lift?
The Car Transfer Lift is specifically designed to help patients get in and out of vehicles, as well as all other Hoyer-style transfers. The Take-a-Long Folding Patient Lift can be used for transfers between beds, chairs, and other surfaces while still being portable, but cannot transfer patients into a car.

Yes. Folding patient lifts like the Take-A-Long and Car Transfer lift are designed to collapse and fit into most car trunks, making them ideal for transport and travel. Check the product specifications for exact folded dimensions.
What is the weight capacity of our portable patient lifts?
The Car Transfer Lift has a max capacity of 350 lbs, while the Take-a-Long Lift has a max capacity of 400 lbs.
Are portable patient lifts easy to assemble and transport?
Yes. Portable lifts are designed for quick setup and breakdown without tools, making them easy to move, store, and transport.
Do portable patient lifts require a sling?
Yes. A sling is required for safe operation - which we provide free! Our portable lifts include a free compatible sling, and different sling types are available for the Take-a-Long (only) depending on your needs. The Car Transfer Lift has a single, dedicated sling that is compatible.
