WARNING!
Using the Sling
– Use the sling that is recommended by a
Healthcare Professional for the comfort and
safety of the individual that is being lifted.
– Individuals that use the stand assist sling MUST
be able to support the majority of their own
weight, otherwise injury may occur.
– Bleached, torn, cut, frayed or broken slings are
unsafe and their use could result in injury or
damage. Discard any sling that meets these
criteria IMMEDIATELY.
– DO NOT alter slings.
– Be sure to check the sling attachments each
time the sling is removed and replaced, to
ensure that it is properly attached before the
patient is removed from a stationary object
(bed, chair or commode).
– If the patient is in a wheelchair, activate the
wheelchair brakes to prevent the chair from
moving forwards or backwards.
– Consideration should be taken that prevents
exposure to danger to the person being lifted,
and that the person can be freed without
injury.
