A stretcher-compatible lift is a specially designed elevator that accommodates stretchers and medical equipment, ensuring safe and efficient patient transport in buildings such as hospitals, clinics, residential complexes, and public institutions. The installation of such a lift is a critical aspect of healthcare infrastructure, aimed at enhancing emergency response and accessibility for individuals with limited mobility.
These lifts are typically larger in size, with a minimum car dimension of 1100 mm (width) x 2100 mm (depth), allowing sufficient space for a standard stretcher and accompanying personnel. Doors are usually automatic and wide-opening to facilitate smooth entry and exit without obstruction. The lift is equipped with features like emergency alarms, intercom systems, battery backup, and smooth, jerk-free movement to ensure patient comfort and safety.
