Toileting Sling W/Belt

This thing feels really solid and made from great material

Don't know of any

olin k. from odon, in

I have MD and it works great for me

Toileting sling - being able to put on/take off without having to have resident in bed, not having to leave it on her w/c for dignity purposes

Bathing sling - reclines resident too far, unable to get resident into sitting position safely. Resident afraid when back too far.

Toileting sling - works well Bathing sling - reclines resident way too far; wish we would have sent it back.

Will work for the average size person who is able to help themselves a little in the transfer.

None that I have experienced

Sling too big for my daughter (medium) who is 5'5" and weighs 137 lbs. Trying to get something smaller.

Would probably work for larger people

Belt was way too large--it just doesn't work for smaller users.

Did not work for my daughter who is 5'4" and 135 lbs., nothing small enough.

Ease of use - putting on and taking off design is amazing

Wish there was a secondary set of straps just below top ones - so as to not put so much pressure underarms -- more support for back -

85 year old male, 210 pounds, invalid (can't walk or take a step), can't lift himself up, incontinent, with dementia

Well-built with multiple attachment points.

The only way to use the sling would be to have two attendants lift or roll patient onto it.

54 years of age, with neurological Lyme Sling is well-built but very difficult to get into. As a result, I don't use the sling. It's much too larg

Style

None.

We have different caregivers in to assist and the color coded straps are very helpful. The client feels secure and it's easy to use. Sturdy construction

My only suggestion would be to stitch the belt down a little more on either side in the back. We have to go hunting for it sometimes

karen w. from rohnert park, ca (caregiver)

My client is 89 and has gotten to the place that she needed help with transfers. She was so distrustful of anyone helping her

Easy to learn to use

Belt needs to be able to be tightened more. This is our one big problem when transporting as she begins to slip through bottom of sling because belt is not snug to her body.
