We have a patient lift at the dialysis clinic. It’s new and quite fancy. It will weigh the patient while lifting them out of the wheelchair. There was an old one previously but they replaced it recently. The patient basically sit in a big canvas or cloth bag and the device lifts them from their wheelchair to the dialysis chair and vice versa.
Unfortunately, it gets a lot of use here. There are lots of wheelchair-bound patients who can’t transfer themselves to the dialysis chair. It just makes this place all the more depressing.
