When choosing to use a lift gantry system, it is important to be mindful of the following considerations:
- Weight Capacity - Understand the weight restrictions for both the gantry itself and the portable lift being used.
- Setup Area - While having a fairly minimal footprint, it is important to make sure that the lift gantry has enough space to be set up properly and used efficiently.
- Training - While systems like these are fairly straight forward to set up and use, it is important to receive proper training, as well as any ongoing repeat of the training to keep you and your patient safe while using.
- Maintenance - Regular inspections of the gantry structure itself, along with routine evaluations of the portable lift being used will help keep everyone safe. Be sure to always look for signs of wear and tear.
