Introduction

We started the Molift rental subscription service in 2021. The subscription service offers care lifts as an alternative to purchasing. The lift has been implemented in nursing homes, hospitals, and facilities for the handicapped, as well as day care and home rehab services, to reduce staff burden and improve the work environment. In this article, we would like to present the pros and cons of the Molift Rental Subscription Service to help you better understand the service.

What are the Pros of a subscription?

No additional charges	The service is available exclusively for a monthly fee, with no additional charges.
Short delivery time	The lift is delivered in about a week of registration, with free online instructions from our staff, enabling any facility to schedule installation and start trials right away.
Flexible to customer needs	Lift type and sling size can be changed up to once a month to respond to sudden caregiver vacancies or changes in user condition. Monthly contracts allow returns and cancellations to avoid extra costs. *Contract length may vary by lift type.
Smooth budget planning	If the battery deteriorates or a malfunction occurs during normal use, the unit will be replaced. This avoids sudden expenses and supports smooth annual budget planning.

What are the Cons of a subscription?

Self-assembly and packaging required	The customer is responsible for assembling the lift upon receipt and disassembling it for return.
Return in original condition	Use only stickers that can be removed cleanly upon return, and keep the sling free of writing with magic markers or similar items.
Some are not eligible	Molift Mover 180 and slings for toilet situations are excluded from the service.
Fees apply for on-site consultations	Our representative will give a live online demo of lift assembly and sling installation using the same product provided free of charge.

What is Kawamura Academy?
We also offer a 24/7 online service called Kawamura Academy, which includes the "Molift College course" featuring short videos on lift operation, emergency handling, and transfer assistance with different slings.

Summary

Many facilities use this service as a trial before installing a care lift. To help customers unsure about using the lift, we offer a "First Month Free Service."
Take this opportunity to experience its operation and handling in your room. By using the equipment, staff not only reduce physical strain but also contribute to standardizing operations. Utilize caregiving technologies, such as lifts, to improve the work environment, create a more comfortable workplace, and ensure a safe and pleasant space for users.
