About Hoist slings & lifting aids
Our Hoist slings & lifting aids are designed to provide a safe, supportive and comfortable transfer for the patient. The Hoist sling provides options for various models, sizes, and fabrics to ensure the sling fits each person perfectly.
Our Hoist slings are specially made to provide optimal positioning and ease of application. The hoist slings provide a safe and comfortable transfer solution for several types of physical disability. This selection of high-quality slings has been developed in collaboration with Physiotherapists to ensure exceptional functionality.
The patient hoist sling has a range of adjustments to meet the specific needs of individuals. All hoist slings feature a green label on the back with detailed illustrations on how to position the sling according to the spine of the patient. This is intended to help caregivers position the sling correctly.
Hoist slings & lifting aids are suitable for;
- Individuals with Limited Mobility
- Lifting aids for elderly
- Those recovering from surgery
- People with disabilities
- Nursing homes
- Hospitals
Benefits of Hoist slings & lifting aids
- Reduce the risk of injury for both caregivers and patients being lifted
- Minimize physical strain on careers
- They allow for quicker and smoother lifting and moving
- Various types of slings are available for different lifting needs and body types.
The chosen hoist and sling must be able to lift your body weight. Consequently, the working load should be displayed on both the sling and the hoist. You must know your weight accurately to select the appropriate equipment.
Check the hoist regularly to ensure that:
- the lifting arm moves smoothly through its full range
- the castors on a mobile hoist move freely
- the brakes are effective when used
- any emergency stop mechanism works effectively.
You must ensure that the battery works well, is charged, and is correctly installed before using a powered hoist. Check any electrical connections and leads to ensure no fraying, breakages etc. Also, check slings for any broken stitching or frayed or broken material. Straps and clips should be secure and in good condition. There shouldn’t be more than a single user using the sling to prevent cross-infection. Always use slings that are compatible with the hoist (this usually means using slings from the same manufacturer).
The hoists and slings should be serviced every six months. This service may be provided by the manufacturer or the supplier or arranged by the local community equipment service if your hoist is supplied through statutory services. A mobile hoist has brakes on the castors. These must not be used to transfer a service user but may be used when storing the hoist. Check that they hold the hoist securely when applied.
