Positioning Sling

The Positioning Sling is designed to address the risk of manual repositioning, allowing caregivers to reposition and turn clients with less effort. The Positioning Sling is intended to be permanently in place, as part of the bedding. The sling has several pairs of straps and loops to offer support in a variety of positions. The sling can also be used for lateral transfers between horizontal surfaces.

• The use of the Positioning Sling for turning and repositioning activities will reduce the friction and shearing forces typically generated during these tasks, increasing the safety for the client.
• Provides full body support for lateral supine transfers, repositioning and turning in bed
• Multiple loop and strap options can accommodate various user repositioning and transfer tasks
• Intended to be left in place (assessment required)
• SAFE WORKING LOAD: 800 LBS

Appropriate for patiens who:

• Requires lateral transfers (i.e., bed to stretcher) 
• Requires frequent turning or repositioning
• Is physically difficult for caregivers to reposition or turn 
• Receives care in side lying (i.e., peri-care, wound care)
