Important:
The Trunk & Pelvic Neoprene Harness is designed
for a general purpose transfer for patients with
some weight bearing ability. Used from a
recumbent, seated to standing positions.
The patient must be assessed by a competent
person who is fully trained in the suitability,
application and fitting of the sling.
Carers should always be trained in the use of lifts
and slings. Correct sizing of a sling is important,
if in any doubt consult your Moving and Handling
Advisor.
Service Label & Sling Checks:
All products should be checked each time they
are used for any signs of deterioration.
Please Check:
- braiding/tapes for deterioration and fraying
- material for holes/snagging
- compatibility with the hoist
- safe working load of both the hoist and sling/product
(if applicable)
- label is legible
Remove from use immediately if there are any signs
of deterioration to the sling or tapes or the label
is illegible.
The Service Label
is a visual indicator of
when the 6-monthly or annual hoist inspection has
been completed. This is in line with LOLER (Lifting
Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations).
