Padded leg pieces make a difference for a client who is thin through the thighs or who reports pinching during a hoist transfer. The padding spreads pressure across a wider area of the leg and stops the material roping up underneath.
The leg pieces on this version are extended, which gives a carer room to cross and clip them on a client with a larger build through the hips and thighs. Head support is included, so the sling can be used for a client who cannot maintain head position through the lift.
This is a general purpose sling for bed to chair, chair to chair and chair to commode transfers with a passive lifter and a four point clip spreader bar. It launders at facility temperature and carries a stated service life, so it belongs on a replacement schedule.
