Us er G u i d e Fo r T h e St Ebbas/Longseat Sling
The St Ebbas/Longseat sling has been designed for amputees but is also suitable for other
patients who have to remain in the sling for an extended period, such as for bed making or
bathing. It is available with or without a commode aperture. A head support attachment is
also available. The sling can be fleece lined for additional comfort.
The St Ebbas/Longseat sling is suitable for the lifting of amputees, but patients must be
individually assessed for suitability by a qualified person.
The St Ebbas/Longseat sling is suitable for the following categories of lift:
•
Category B - Bed
•
Category E - Floor
The St Ebbas/Longseat sling can only be fitted to patients in the RECUMBENT position.
Once the lift is completed the patient may be transferred to a wheelchair, toilet, shower
chair or bath, but the sling can only be removed when the patient is returned to the
RECUMBENT position.
The St Ebbas/Longseat sling has been designed for use with the Oxford six hook spreader
bar and a pair of side suspenders. Side suspenders are supplied with each sling. A head
support attachment is also available and is recommended when lifting from the recumbent
position. Additional slings are available to suit individual needs. You are advised to always
seek the advice of an authorised dealer before purchasing. Sunrise Medical will be pleased
to advise your nearest authorised dealer who will be able to handle all purchasing, training
and after sale servicing.
