Product Details

Low Back Patient Lifting Sling

Designed for use in most common lifting situations, the Low Back Patient Lifting Sling is the standard model of sling for more active users. Perfect for sitting transfers between the bed and wheelchair, it holds the patient in an upright seated position as they are being moved, and is ideal for those who have more torso stability. The sling is easy for the caregiver to apply and gives all users involved a sense of security.

  • Seven different sizes to get an individualised fit

Full Security

The Low Back Sling is a functional and comfortable lifting tool, and is quick and easy for the carer to apply in preparation for a transfer or a lift. It features separated leg sections, which means that the patient does not sit on the sling and is instead supported from the tailbone up to under the arms, giving the patient a feeling of full security.

Sizing of the Low Back Sling

The sling can often be used for both 2 and 4-point suspension. It is essential to ensure that the width of the Sling Bar is appropriate for the sling size and the patient’s status and capacity.

The Low Back Patient Lifting Sling comes in a choice of seven different sizes. Please refer to the table below for more information about the measurements of each sling and the weight load that has been recommended each size should carry.
