Evaluate safe patient transfers using a Hoyer or total body lift. This checklist guides staff through sling selection and inspection, communicating with the person served, adjusting bed height, securing wheelchairs, positioning the lift and spreader bar, attaching loops, raising and lowering safely, and removing the sling. Record pass or fail results and add recommendations for training or corrective action.
