This sling is built for bariatric transfers, with a high rated capacity and a cut that spreads load across a larger body. It supports the trunk and thighs fully and head support is included, so a client with limited trunk or head control stays held and settled through the whole lift.
The fabric is the parachute nylon used across the Handi-Move sling range, strong under load and low in bulk, which helps when the sling has to be worked under a person who cannot assist with the roll. The seat area stays open, so toileting and continence care can go ahead with the client supported.
For carers, one sling then covers the daily routine: bed to chair, chair to shower chair, and floor recovery where the hoist and rail allow. Check the rating of the hoist, spreader bar and any ceiling track alongside the sling before the plan is written, since the lowest rated part sets the limit.
