Got the bottle

Lewisham Hospital NHS Trust has
improved handling efficiency and
reduced the risk of accidents to both
patients and porters when moving gas
cylinders by investing in an electricoperated
gas bottle mover from
MasterMover.

Prior to investing in the gas bottle
mover gas bottles were moved by a
porter from the central stores to their
destination using either a trolley or
were carried manually.

The Gas Bottle Mover is purpose
designed and built to address the
problem of transferring gas bottles
safely and quickly around a hospital.

The machine supplied is capable of
moving up to 16 bottles in a single
journey, enabling the porters to make
more efficient ward deliveries and
reducing manual handling.
