Lakeville, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/15/2018 -- Durable medical equipment such as the Bruno Vertical Lift Platform, the SureHands Ceiling Lift Systems and Aqua Creek Pool Lifts are complex systems with many moving parts. Luckily, Lift & Care Systems offers an Annual Inspection Program (AIP) to help assure that all installed durable medical equipment stays in tip-top shape and assure that it is still working safely in a home or business.

These inspections, performed by a trained and qualified technician with specialized testing equipment, examine the lift by following the manufacturer's 25-40 written points of inspection list. Lift systems are built with many safety features that Lift & Care Systems maintains at the manufacturer's recommended specification levels.

Here are just some of the services performed in an AIP:

- Ensure that the track/rail is well anchored and tightly secured as the day of installation.
- Check the battery performance, charging system, and safety limit switches.
- Inspect the condition of all parts.
- Grease and clean any parts as needed.

The technicians will inform you if there are any problems and will replace parts only with permission. If insurance is the preferred payment method, Lift & Care Systems will assist with the process.

Bottom line: The AIP is an inexpensive service that provides the following benefits:

- Keeps the lift operating safely
- Eliminates or minimizes down time
- Helps avoid expensive emergency service calls.

"Our experience with the Annual Inspection Program is that the people who keep up with the inspections definitely minimize equipment downtime," said Dave Austin, President of Lift & Care Systems, Inc. "This is very important because people who have a patient lift, ceiling lift, or stairlift rely on them and find themselves in a tough situation if they malfunction. Although we cannot guarantee that they will not malfunction, these inspections definitely are critical in preventing downtime, and are well worth the investment."
