The Bariatric Hammock Sling is a specialised patient hoist designed specifically for transferring patients who are in a reclined position or amputee patients. This unique sling is particularly suitable for transfers when the patient is semi-reclined and may also be utilised with amputee patients. It’s especially beneficial for patients who cannot tolerate leg straps positioned between their knees. Additionally, the sling is often preferred for pear-shaped residents or patients, as their stomachs are more prominent and require additional support.

One of the standout features of the Bariatric Hammock Sling is its full padding with Spacer fabric. This innovative material is not only softer but also disperses heat more effectively, thereby preventing a build-up of body heat and sweat. This contributes to increased comfort for the patient and aids in skin management, crucial for individuals with limited mobility who may be at risk of skin breakdown.

The design and functionality of the Bariatric Hammock Sling are tailored to meet the specific needs and challenges associated with transferring reclined or amputee patients. Its versatility and padded construction ensure a secure and comfortable transfer experience, while also addressing the unique requirements of individuals with differing body shapes and mobility limitations.

In summary, this Sling offers a reliable and practical solution for transferring patients in reclined positions or those with amputations. Its padded design, coupled with Spacer fabric technology, prioritises patient comfort and skin management, making it an invaluable tool in the provision of safe and dignified care in healthcare settings.
