Description
The Hoyer Advance-E is a portable electric patient lift from Joerns Healthcare. It does everything a full-size electric Hoyer lift does, push-button raising and lowering of a person who cannot bear weight, but it folds down without tools so you can store it in a closet or take it along in a car. For families who split care between homes or travel to see relatives, that portability is a big advantage.
The Advance-E supports up to 340 lbs. and lifts from just 15.3″ to 66.5″, low enough to pick someone up from the floor after a fall and high enough to reach most hospital beds.

A Folding Electric Hoyer Lift
Most electric patient lifts are heavy and stay in one room. The Hoyer Advance-E is different. It folds in seconds without tools, and at about 70 lbs. it is light enough to load into many vehicles. The swan-neck leg design curves around wheelchair wheels and chair legs, letting the caregiver bring the person closer to the seat before lowering. A push pad and a large handle make the lift easy to roll and steer on carpet.
Base and Fit
The base opens from 26.3″ to 42.5″ on the outside (22.4″ to 39.3″ inside), and the lift is 51″ long. The legs stand only 4.5″ high, so they slide under most beds. Bring your measurements and we will make sure it fits your space.

Using the Hoyer Advance-E Safely
Unfold the lift fully and check that it is locked open before every use. Inspect the sling and its loops, open the legs for stability and lift only as high as needed. Keep the battery charged. Ask a nurse or therapist to train each caregiver, especially for floor pickups.
