Bed lift

Hospitals and medical clinics should be equipped with different elevators, one of which is the hospital-bed and patient elevators. What are the specifications of those elevators? These types of elevators should deliver the highest level of safety and comfort. As you can guess, these types of elevators should be big enough to accommodate a patient bed and probably a number of medical personnel in their car. Furthermore, sometimes patients with their wheelchairs use these types of elevators. A good ventilation system is a priority for hospital-bed and patient elevators. The patients should not feel any vibration when using these elevators. The elevator should run smoothly and free from severe vibrations, because patients are in sensitive physical conditions and need special care in time of movement. Hospital-bed elevators made this special care possible. Keep in mind that a patient elevator should only be used to transport patients. These types of elevators should have high speed to quickly transport the patient and the medical personnel to the desired floor. Therefore, it is important to take the accuracy and speed of such elevators seriously.

What tips to consider when implementing hospital elevators? 

Hospital elevators should have strong and enduring chassis to tolerate enormous weights and be safe from different kinds of vulnerabilities. The elevator floor and walls should be free from different contamination and microbes as the hospital environment must be clean and isolated. These elevators should be made of easy-to-sterile materials. 

When designing such elevators, you should consider enough room for patient beds, nurses, and medical equipment.

Hospital elevator features:

• Strong and enduring chassis

• Moving loads with the capacity of 1 to 20 tons 

• Moving in 9-meter length and 4 stops

• Quiet and noiseless

• Low part deprecation

Hospital elevators have two main functions:

• Elevators to transport patients with their trolleys and equipment

• Elevators to transport staff and visitors

These two transportation flows should have separated elevators to avoid trouble for emergency patients once the staff or visitors hail the elevators. To avoid interference with their traffic and pathway, the patient elevators in medical institutes should be located separately. 

The patient should be transported gently, while the elevator re-start moving smoothly with minimum vibration and acceleration.
