These stretcher slings are designed to facilitate safe and secure transfers for patients who require full body support in a supine position without requiring any manual lifting from caregivers. They are designed to be used with stretcher frames and have a series of straps along both sides to ensure even distribution of patient weight and help the patient feel completely supported and secure during transfers. The cradle-like design of the head area further enhanced patient comfort. The respositioning stretcher sling is more flexible to aid caregivers in adjusting a patient's position, such as from their back to their side.
The stretcher sling is available with an opening for toileting, eliminating the need to transfer patients to a separate chair or passive lift in order to perform hygiene routines. The convenient opening also helps ensure these routines are safe, comfortable, and dignified for both patient and caregiver.
The stretcher sling with hygiene opening can also come in a mesh material designed to accommodate bathing. Water passes easily through the sling and wont pool uncomfortably around the patient; once bathing is complete, the sling dries quickly. The combination of mesh material and hygiene opening further increases the slings functional versatility. The material is also washable for sanitary use across many different patients; while the durable construction ensures the slings are built to last for upwards of ten years.
