These general purpose slings are used in conjunction with patient lifts or transfer aids to help caregivers safely and easily move patients who have little to no mobility on their own. Most transfer aids are designed to allow a single caregiver to attend to the needs of a patient, including toileting, bathing, and transferring to and from beds and wheelchairs. The strap or clip attachments secure to the spreader bar, which is in turn secured to the lift cassette. All these general purpose slings have a safe working load of 600 pounds to accommodate even bariatric patients; however, please note that the safe working load of your spreader bar, lift cassette, or other transfer aid may differ, and you should always defer to the lowest safe working load to ensure the safety of both the patient and the caregiver.
Each sling is made of long-lasting, durable material that can easily support frequent use for upwards of ten years.
The general purpose slings from Arjo come in 2- and 4-point connections, and are compatible with a range of Arjo lifts and transfer aids. To see which slings are compatible with your machine, please see the chart below.
