LOLER Inspections for Patient Lifting Equipment

We specialise in LOLER Inspections for Patient Lifting Equipment, such as patient hoists, slings, assisted baths and more. With equipment engineers based across the UK, we help a wide range of care and medical facilities to stay safe, regulated and compliant.

LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations) inspections are thorough examinations of lifting equipment. The examinations need to be carried out to ensure lifting equipment is safe and fit for purpose. To ensure you are complying with the Care Quality establishment in your region, we will ensure you have the correct certification. If you can’t provide them with the reports that they need, you could be penalised.

The Importance of LOLER Inspections

The primary purpose of LOLER Inspections is to guarantee the safe and proper use of all work-based lifting equipment. According to the LOLER 1998 regulations, it’s mandatory for all lifting equipment to possess adequate strength and stability suitable for their intended purposes.

The LOLER Regulations also state that the Safe Working Load (SWL) and all maintenance dates should be displayed on all pieces of lifting equipment and that any faults or defects must be reported immediately and fixed promptly.

LOLER and its implementation in care homes and medical facilities aims to minimise the potential risks of injuries or fatalities caused by use of lifting equipment in the workplace. It’s vital for ensuring the continued safety of both your residents and employees.
