What does a mechanical lift assist in doing for a person?

Providing oxygen therapy
Assisting in walking
Lifting and moving a person
Administering medication

The correct answer is: Lifting and moving a person

A mechanical lift is designed specifically to assist caregivers in lifting and moving individuals who may have limited mobility or difficulty with movement. This device helps transfer patients safely from one position to another, such as from a bed to a wheelchair, without putting undue strain on either the person being moved or the caregiver. By using a mechanical lift, the risk of injury to both the patient and the caregiver is significantly reduced, making it an essential tool in providing safe and effective care for individuals with mobility challenges.
