Yeah, transport chairs aren’t very comfortable and limit the person’s ability to self-propel, but they are often the only option in homes with narrow halls and doorways. Space is also a limiting factor for any lifts because they are all pretty large.

Transport wheelchairs are narrower and are easier to maneuver in tight spaces. As far as lifts, if she has the upper body strength to grab onto a bar while being lifted, a sit-to-stand lift is safer than a Hoyer when only one person is available to assist.
