A sit-to-stand lift and a Hoyer lift are not the same, though both are used for assisting individuals with mobility challenges. A sit-to-stand lift is designed to help individuals transition from a seated to a standing position, providing support during the process. In contrast, a Hoyer lift, which is a type of patient lift, is used to transfer individuals who are unable to stand from one place to another, such as from a bed to a wheelchair, using a sling for full-body support.
