more reclined the client will be.
Fitting the Sling from a Lying Position
1
Safely position the client onto the sling, ensuring
that the lower edge of the sling body is positioned
at the base of the spine.
NOTE: For added safety and support, Joerns
Healthcare recommend the use of a head support
when lifting from the floor.
IMPORTANT: ENSURE THAT YOUR CLIENT'S
HEAD IS SUPPORTED AT ALL TIMES

Carefully feed the leg sections under and up
between the legs, ensuring that the sling is po-
sitioned comfortably and not twisted or creased
under the thigh. Cross the leg straps, using the
modesty loop if required and proceed to attach
the sling to the spreader bar in the same manner
as with the seated position.
NOTE: The longer you attach the shoulder straps,
the more reclined the client will be.
