Patient lifts are a popular choice when assisting individuals with limited mobility. It's important to have a quality sling that can attach to the machine's cradle, offering support and comfort during the lift. The Patient Repositioning Sling for Patient Lifts by Medline is a high-quality option with durable construction that can hold most adults during transfer. It can accommodate patients up to 1000 lbs!
There are also multiple places you can connect the lift, allowing you to use it with a 2-point, 4-point, or 6-point sling. Stitching around the edges helps keep the loops connected to the fabric, ensuring they hold up during lift operation.
The latex-free fabric is gentle on the skin and smooth to the touch. It helps patients remain comfortable when using the sling for transfers and can even stay on the bed while they sleep. It's a great option for busy clinics, nursing homes, and hospitals to set it up in advance and leave it next to the patient before subsequent use.
A large 72 in. x 48 in. blanket provides plenty of space for patients to rest comfortably during a lift. This also makes it an ideal option to use as a glide sheet for manual transfers. Caretakers can slide the fabric underneath the patient and use it to move them with or without a lift sling.
For maximum comfort, you can also use this product with other Medline favorites, like the UltraSorbs dry pads or ComfortGlide wedges.
