Clip Bathing Sling - Unpadded and Extended Legs by Arjo

The Clip bathing sling - unpadded and extended legs is suitable for bathing and showering as the mesh material allows water to pass easily through the sling. The extended leg sling has been designed to create a longer reach around the thighs if needed.

Selecting the most appropriate sling is important to ensure that it is suitable for the patient/resident, for the type of transfer required and compatible with the lift being used. The use of patient/resident handling equipment such as mechanical lifts with the appropriate sling is a core component of safe patient handling programs.

This sling is intended for assisted transfer of passive patients/residents with limited ability to move and require full support during transfer.

The sling is to be used with passive lifting devices to transfer patients in a seated/semi-reclined position to and from bed, chair, wheelchair or hygiene device during care activities and from the floor. The extended leg will allow for an easier leg clip attachment for patients or residents with slightly larger hips and/or thighs.

The clip slings are used in combination with DPS (Dynamic Positioning System) spreader bar, a system that allows the caregiver to position the resident or patient in the sling - from upright to reclined without needing to do so manually, helping to reduce physical caregiver effort.
