An economical portable patient moving system is provided that can be simply and easily erected within a room to form a pipe frame on which is mounted a travelling bridge and hoist trolley allowing complete x,y movement throughout the room and lifting and lowering at any position within the room. The hoist is powered with a battery for safety reasons, and the travelling bridge and hoist car are mounted on low-friction wheel and bearing assemblies so that the entire apparatus can be simply and easily moved about the room by a physically impaired person sitting in the patient carrying platform and moving the feet along the floor to guide the travelling bridge and car members.
