Patient lifter/ hoist hire in Copenhagen - please help


Recommended Posts

Hello, 

 

My husband and I are booked to sail from Copenhagen at the end of August 2022 on Voyager of the Seas. We usually travel from Southampton , where we hire a hoist for delivery to the cabin, but can’t seem to be able to find a service like this in Denmark. Has anyone hired one before in Copenhagen and might have the details of who offers this ? We sail very soon but would probably have to cancel without this piece of equipment as my husband can’t transfer out of his wheelchair without help. I have emailed the Accessible Copenhagen organisation to ask for some help too but everyone else I’ve contacted only offers scooters or wheelchairs so am now at a loss.

 

Any help greatly appreciated 

 

Thanks!

I have no experience with rental of such equipment - but a quick search turned up some results - but try contacting some of these and see if they can help - web in Danish Language but they should be able  to answer e-mails in English

Just a quick update to say many thanks to hallasm - we have successfully booked our equipment rental with one of the providers you listed who has made our travels possible ! 

 

here is a list of the equipment they offer ( Google translate is your friend here if you are completely unskilled in the danish language as I am )

Also worth knowing, that we arranged to spend two nights in Copenhagen before boarding the ship, and the provider is delivering this equipment to our hotel ready for our arrival and then collecting from the hotel and delivering to the ship on embarkation day( for a fee ) . We can also leave the equipment in our cabin on debarkation day and don’t have to worry about getting it off the ship. All in all , the golden package ,at a reasonable price , which means we can travel light and see some of the sights too before cruising. 
 

A second provider did quote , however https://danskplejeteknik.dk do not work weekends therefore could not accommodate us on this instance( we board on a Sunday but must fly in on the Saturday at the latest) 

 

Now I’ve got about 3 days left to figure out the rest of the itinerary… hehe
