Thanks Ginger. Many different names are used, based on their configuration/brand/function..hence why I didn’t use any particular nomenclature besides a description 🙂
I’ve formerly prescribed all sorts, but mostly the Invocare hoist, found here https://www.pushmobility.com.au/products/invacare-birdie-compact?variant=31726998454352&currency=AUD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIwbK3zdWPgQMVTg-DAx3rPQYTEAQYAyABEgLpf_D_BwE which I’ve found to be quite versatile (but not the only one I’ve prescribed from Invacare).
The other item I find helpful is the half step block, for those with staircases: https://stairaide.com/stairaide-blocks/
