Who Does the Immedia SlingOn Hoist Attachment Benefit?

The Immedia SlingOn Hoist Attachment is a multi-tool designed primarily for the easy insertion of a hoist sling, without the need for rolling or moving the user. As such, the attachment is a convenient solution for carers seeking friendlier methods of patient transfer, whilst the comfort the attachment provides is a welcome relief for patients with low mobility.

How Do I Position the Immedia SlingOn Under Patients?

1. The press studs in all four corners must be fastened.
2. Fold the SlingOn at least as many times as there is a crossed stitching at each functional handle.
3. Position SlingOn under the user either from the head or foot end so that the open end faces away from the user and the folded part is under the head, pillow and shoulders.
4. Grasp the corner through both layers – the carer’s palm is facing the user with SlingOn inside the carer’s hand.
5. The carer can now “roll” SlingOn out under the user.
6. It will often be an advantage if there are more than two carers e.g. one carer to hold SlingOn at the top while the other carers press down on the mattress.
7. Fold out one wing at a time.
