Moving & Handling

The moving and handling equipment we supply is selected to make safe patient transfers simple, efficient, and comfortable across care homes, hospitals, and community care settings. Our range of mobile hoists, stand-assist hoists, and overhead hoists supports both passive and active transfers, helping staff reduce strain while ensuring service users’ dignity.

The mobile hoists in our range provide smooth lifting and lowering with long booms, ergonomic pedals, and compact frames that easily manoeuvre in tight spaces or store under beds. Stand-assist hoists encourage user engagement with adjustable arm and leg supports, ergonomic grips, and robust footplates supporting up to 150kg. The overhead hoists we offer provide versatile, space-saving solutions for single-handed transfers across multiple rooms, improving workflow efficiency and freeing up valuable floor space.

All hoists supplied by DDC are EN ISO 10535 certified, meeting international safety standards and giving care teams absolute confidence when performing transfers. Equipping your facility with these hoists helps reduce the risk of injury, improves patient mobility, and provides a safer, more comfortable care environment for service users.

Whether you need compact, ergonomic hoists for small care settings or high-capacity overhead systems for larger facilities, DDC can provide a solution to improve daily care routines while keeping transfers safe, efficient, and dignified.
