Multicare Benefits

Multicare is one of the North West’s largest manufacturers and installers of stairlifts and we have helped thousands of people regain their independence by providing safe and reliable solutions to the difficulties posed by stairs at home. At Multicare we know staying in your own home means the world to most people and we are proud to have helped many people overcome the problems they had climbing up and down stairs.

When you choose a Multicare stairlift you are not only selecting a model that complies to British and European standards, you are also choosing an ISO Quality approved supplier who conforms to the ethical business practices required by both the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA), whose code of practice is approved by the Office of Fair Trading, and the Lift and Escalator Industry Association (LEIA). You have the peace of mind of knowing your stairlift has been made by a respected, reputable company with a tried and tested reputation for safety, reliability and innovation.

All Multicare stairlifts are designed with the user in mind. We have listened closely to feedback from users and healthcare professionals and together with our own substantial experience have developed a range of stairlifts to suit different users’ needs and budgets too.

Some stairlift users may have limited dexterity or painful conditions such as arthritis and our Minivator stair lifts feature a unique operating toggle system which helps to minimise this pain making the stairlifts easy and simple to use. The toggle is simply fitted to whichever side of the stairlift is easiest for the user to operate.

The toggle is pressed or held in the direction of travel and the stairlift transports the user comfortably, smoothly and safely.

Minivator stairlifts offer features such as a powered swivel seat and powered folding footplate which can make using a stairlift even easier by allowing the user to operate these functions at the touch of a button rather than manually – and the battery back-up means they will still work in a power cut. Even if they’re not required now, they could provide useful benefits at some point in the future.

Safety as standard

All Minivator stairlifts have safety sensors on the power pack and footplate; these are designed to stop the stair lift if it meets any obstruction. Once stopped it can only be moved in the opposite direction to the obstruction. All Minivator stairlifts have a diagnostic display so that you can monitor the status of your stairlift, for example. a safety edge has been activated.

Your stairlift will also come with a seat belt as standard for additional peace of mind. Our easy release retractable seat belt gives the added flexibility of allowing you to fasten it to one side or centrally, whichever is easier for you or other users.
