English

Fitting the Sling from a Lying Position

Draw sheet roll the client onto the sling, ensuring that

the sling aperture is at the base of the spine.

NOTE:

For added safety and support, Joerns

Healthcare recommend the use of a head support

when lifting from the floor.

Carefully feed the leg sections under and up between

the patient’s legs, ensuring that the sling is positioned

comfortably and not twisted or creased under the

thighs. Configure the leg straps in the same manner

as with the seated position (step 3). Next,

proceed

to attach the sling to the spreader bar in the same

manner as with the seated position (step 4).

NOTE:

The longer you attach the shoulder straps,

the more reclined the client will be.

IMPORTANT: ENSURE THAT YOUR CLIENT’S

HEAD IS SUPPORTED AT ALL TIMES DURING

TRANSFER.
