Question by bluechyll: what are 5 different types of lifting aids used in the workplace?
I need 5 types of equipment or aids used for lifting in the workplace. Some can be for Aged Care use e.g lifting patients, and some can be for just lifting heavy crates and things like that.
Any help is much appreciated!

I don’t know for sure what they are called, but there is a lift for getting people in and out of a swimming pool
and another one for lifting people out of a wheel chair — actually there are different kinds of these as I have seen newer models that are electric rather than by hand
