Home care environments may necessitate equipment that is mobile and that can be effectively used in restricted space by family or lay carers. Consequently, there has been the creation of convenient and transportable handling equipment with home-use features, taking the market out of the clinical healthcare setting. Manufacturers are now more and more aiming at creating products that will look like home equipment while at the same time being as safe and as effective as they are for use in health care facilities.
  • There are also market challenges most notably in terms of high costs to the market and inadequate training for the users of the market. Some of the patient handling equipment could be expensive during purchase hence a challenge to small health care facilities or regions that are still under development. Further, it is noted that proper care about such equipment is sometimes possible only after extensive training for caregivers to truck operation and subsequent service or repair; this, too, contributes to costs and also to the problems of organization. That being said, accomplishing shorter and longer term goals will continue to encourage the adoption of robotic systems because the effects: reduced number of injuries, increased comfort levels for patients, and effective care delivery are paramount. Strategies being implemented in a bid to tackle these challenges include the need to make patient handling products cheaper and the promotion of training programs by manufacturers to enhance easier use of the patient handling equipments across various healthcare delivering institutions.
  • Combined, it is clear the Patient Handling Equipment Market is only set for moderate levels of growth in the coming years due to demographic shifts, advancements in technology, and changing care preferences in the global market. And as the healthcare environment evolves and develops, with the increased focus on patient experience, and safety, for both patients and caregivers, the requirement for modern and efficient patient moving techniques appears to be robust. It will remain the continued emphasis to create equipment that may not only satisfy the healthcare workers’ functional requirements for care but also complement the patient care experience as much as possible, to provide patients with optimal mobility support and care as they undergo their treatment process.
