Frequently Asked Questions
How can care homes ensure safe moving and handling for residents while protecting staff from injury?
Safe moving and handling in a care home requires the right combination of hoists, slings, profiling beds and pressure care mattresses, all working together to transfer, reposition and support residents without manual lifting. Adapt A Home supplies the full range of moving and handling equipment for care and nursing homes, from mobile hoists and hoist slings to care recliners, profiling beds and shower commodes, with expert advice. The aim is a comfortable, safe and dignified environment for residents and staff.
Can you help us equip a whole care home and provide expert advice?
Yes. Adapt A Home supplies across all the main care categories so a facility can be equipped from a single supplier, with expert advice available Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm. You can request a callback to discuss requirements and get a tailored quotation for your home.
Do you supply equipment for bariatric or heavier residents?
Yes. Several models are rated for higher weights, including the Magpie hoist (180kg), the ICON Pro shower commode (180kg), pressure care air mattresses (up to 180–200kg) and universal slings with a 300kg safe working load. Bariatric riser recliners are also available for heavier residents.
What weight do your mobile hoists support?
The mobile patient hoists support 150kg on the Molift Smart 150 and 180kg on the battery-operated Magpie hoist. Both fold and dismantle easily for transport between rooms, with leg-spread adjustment on the Magpie for positioning around chairs and beds.
Which hoist sling is right for a toilet transfer versus a full-body transfer?
For full-body transfers, the Universal Standard Sling provides whole-body and head support with a 300kg safe working load in three sizes, with colour-coded straps for safe correct fitting. For toilet transfers, the Toileting Sling is designed for quick access and easy clothing adjustment, available in seven sizes with colour-coded leg loops and large hoist compatibility.
How do care home staff safely transfer a high-dependency resident in and out of a recliner chair?
The Icon FIFE care recliner is specifically designed for mobile hoist transfers in healthcare and nursing environments, with a 2-motor tilt-in-space action, footrest that folds under the seat for hoist access and optional wings for added head and lateral support. Its 4-hour quick charge keeps it operational throughout a full care shift without downtime.
How do pressure care mattresses help prevent pressure sores?
Pressure care mattresses reduce the risk of pressure sores by redistributing or actively alternating pressure. The Ares auto air mattress provides alternating therapy for residents at medium-to-high risk and includes a CPR knob for emergencies, while the ICON foam mattress distributes weight for lower-risk basic care.
Do your profiling beds come with a pressure care mattress?
Yes. The Ergonomic Profiling Bed includes a pressure care foam mattress and profiles to allow safe repositioning. Its design reduces shear and friction and helps prevent residents sliding down, supporting both comfort and skin integrity.
How can care homes make showering and toileting safer and more dignified for residents?
The ICON Pro Shower Commode is designed for care home use, with a corrosion-resistant frame for wet-room environments, 180kg weight capacity, tension-adjustable backrest and removable leg rests for easy access. It reduces the physical effort required from carers while maintaining resident dignity during personal care.
Can care homes hire equipment instead of buying?
Yes. Alongside purchase, Adapt A Home offers equipment hire, which is useful for short-term needs, covering admissions, or trialling equipment before committing. The team can confirm rental options and availability for your facility.
