The Patient Aid Padded U-Sling was designed for patients that are totally or partially dependent, non-weight bearing, bariatric (obese) and have head and neck control. The U-Sling also known as a Universal sling will be used in 85% of patient transfers because it’s the easiest sling to use while transferring a patient from the seated position. The Universal sling without head support is constructed of a fully padded fabric that forms a soft yet supportive surface. It can be applied or removed very easily by slipping it behind the patient while they are seated or in the reclined position.
The Patient Aid U-Sling also offers a wide opening which provides toileting access and is easier to slip on and off a patient then a normal full body patient sling. The U-Sling without head support molds around the patient’s body and eliminates the need to pull or drag the sling under the patient’s body and risk skin tears or other injuries like those that can occur when applying a full body patient sling. It can be used for transfers from a bed to a chair, wheelchair, or toilet, chair to chair or from the floor to a bed or chair.
